"The authors advise that world needs to:
- Retire about 240 average-sized coal-fired power plants a year, every year between now and 2030.
- Construct the equivalent of three New Yorks’ worth of public transport systems in cities around the world each year this decade.
- Halt deforestation, which is happening to an area the size of 15 football pitches every minute, this decade.
- Increase the rate of growth of solar and wind power from its current high of 14% a year to 24% a year.
- Cut meat consumption from ruminants such as cows and sheep to about two servings a week in the US, Europe and other high-consuming countries by 2030."
The likeliness of ANY of the above happening as advised is close to zero. Merry collpase everyone!
