Reply to Significant reductions in global greenhouse gas emissions still possible. Research estimated total global CO2 emissions from the life cycle of gas-fired power is 3.6 billion tons each year. This could be reduced by as much as 71% if a variety of mitigation options were used around the world. by Wagamaga

With a few billion people trying to lift themselves out of poverty, there is no way emissions go lower in the next 50 years.

Unless like some Apollo program level funding gets put into building renewables while importantly spending equally big on hypnotizing the masses to believe they don't need a 2nd car, a 3rd video game console, a 4th TV, an extra room in a house.

Why are corporations or people, or at least when, will they be held accountable when government allow it?
