At that rate, what are we locked into? 4C? That's Palm trees in the Arctic territory.
And it's a 40 year target, which is something that's really easy to kick the can down the road over.
"Better than nothing" is only literally true. In any meaningful sense, this is incompatible with future human civilization.
I guess you could say at least they have a target, whereas everyone else gave up or is getting worse. But if your target is a slightly less hot section of hell, that's not good enough.
4C means Earth has a carrying capacity of under a billion people.
That means 7 billion people exiting this planet in some manner of horrific violence. It means even most of China will be a wasteland. If they hold this target, and if everyone else follows suit.
That is an unacceptable target.
There won't be any fucking point in developing all this industry that they won't be able to fucking use because we'll all be god damned dead.
