Treated myself to a Limón Pepino Gatorade after not fainting when I went to the *good* bloodwork spot for some labs, and let me tell you, this flavor hits much harder in the dead of summer after a long day of watching children play soccer, but I stand by my decisions.

Agreed, every post saying we are going to miss the 1.5C target should also say "We failed, and this is going to cost lives."

Please take some time to read about the origin of the 1.5C target. It didn't originate from naivety or stupidity. Those who put it forward certainly didn't see it as "pointless" then, and would probably still not.
