Cut greenhouse gas emissions by 80 percent? A lofty goal if I've ever heard one. But this is what the European Union expects by 2050 to prevent the expected 2 degree Celsius rise in temperature that everyone is fearing. This means that wealthy nations like the US would have to cut emissions by 95 percent. 95 percent!! Will this ever happen? I don't think so.
Maybe we shouldn't have sat around doing nothing for so long. Or are we overreacting? Some think that all of this environmental rubbish is just political propaganda. We have dug ourselves a serious hole, and now the only suggestions for fixing it are not only drastic, but completely unrealistic. Good luck.
