"By December 2020, carbon emissions were 2% higher than in the same month the year before."

As devastating as this is - it can’t compare with the fact that this doesn’t dominate the news. Not even for one day. In the best case it’s just another news story among others.
As long as the crisis is not treated like a crisis the changes needed won’t be possible. twitter.com/GretaThunberg/…

”World’s governments plan to produce more than twice the amount of fossil fuels in 2030 than would be consistent with limiting warming to 1.5°C”.
It can no longer be possible for politicians to get away with ignoring the gap between their words and action.

Congratulations to those involved!
It's so obvious nations aren't even close to meet their own very insufficient goals that it holds up in court.
