"while AOC believes we have 10 years to 'do something' or it will be too late, you believe it is already too late and it is a lost cause? Are you saying disaster is now inevitable?"

"Do something" and "too late" are rather nebulous terms. The IPCC says we have to cut emissions by 50% in 10 years, and totally by 2050, if we are to keep the temperature increase below 1.5 degrees C. Rat thinks it was too late for that the day Paris was signed, and it might be too late to keep it below 2 degrees. Localized disasters are already happening.

We have to move faster.
