"Within hours of taking office last week, President Donald Trump made good on
his pledges to wind back the United States’ climate action – including
withdrawing the US from the Paris Agreement.
This political show comes barely a week after 2024 was revealed as the world’s
hottest year and following the catastrophic Los Angeles fires. The fires
directly killed 20 people; potentially many more will die from toxic smoke and
other after-effects.
The science is clear: achieving net-zero emissions by 2050 is humanity’s only
hope of achieving some measure of climate security. It’s time to think deeply
on our chances of getting there.
Here, I outline a few reasons for pessimism, and for hope."
