Post Body

If the entire world were to go Net Zero - meaning all fuel burning cars, trucks and trains were retired, all power was produced by zero-co2 emitting stations, all beef and dairy cattle were culled, and all fizzy soda's were banned - how much warming would be avoided?

Have a guess before reading further:

this recent paper says a total of 0.07C. did you guess that?

"If the entire world forced net zero CO2 emissions by the year 2050, a warming of only 0.070 ∘C (0.13 ∘F) would be averted."

Will the costs, sacrifices, loss of lifestyle and living standard that will need to be enforced to achieve net zero over the next 25years, be worth 0.07C?
