Answers: Is climate change really the end of the world and are we doomed?
- climate change scenarios
- renewable energy progress
- coal consumption decline
- solar and wind energy costs
- lithium-ion battery prices
- carbon capture technology
- greenhouse gas emissions
- decarbonization trends
- climate doomism critique
What it concludes
- The 4 to 8 degrees Celsius apocalypse scenario is much less likely to come to pass based on current climate policies.
- Coal is dying in rich countries and will probably peak soon in emerging countries as renewable energy outcompetes it.
- Renewable energy generation has grown exponentially, with wind and solar becoming significantly cheaper than fossil fuels.
- Lithium-ion battery prices have decreased by 97 percent in the past 30 years, driving the green technology transition.
- Many developed economies have successfully decreased their CO2 emissions while growing their GDP.
- Based on current global climate policies, the world is heading toward a manageable 3 degrees Celsius warming trajectory with clear pathways to improve further.
