      Yeah, if we weren’t jacking up energy usage and building new coal/gas plants maybe I’d be less pessimistic.

      from the article:

      Delegates will next month gather for the COP30 climate conference against a backdrop of progress, the Financial Times wrote: There is already four times as much solar capacity worldwide as analysts in 2010 forecast for 2035, and predictions of warming have fallen from 4°C to 2.6°C.

      2.6 degrees is still worldwide catastrophe levels of temperature rise. how is that still the title of this article?
