The Green Deal improved EU‘s climate performance by more than a degree, shows our Climate Action Tracker. Now the EU needs to keep up the momentum, go the extra step and not roll back.
Voters have a clear choice: Ambitious climate policy or even more droughts and floods.

EU's Green Deal improved its climate performance: a 1.5°C pathway is close

@niklashoehne ~3°C as per plan vs. 4°C+ without the plan doesn't exactly sound very ambitious to me.

It's a choice to completely wreck our current way of life vs. just committing collective suicide right away.

@StreetDogg @niklashoehne the idea is that a concerted effort to get to +3C will open possibilities of getting down to +2C or even +1.5C.
@tob @niklashoehne My dude, the 1,5° ship has already sailed and we're currently happily waving the 2° ship goodbye, because *maybe* we gonna catch the 3° ship if we start trying anytime soon.
@StreetDogg @niklashoehne not your dude. Your nihilism doesn't make you a realist. At best, your rhetoric makes you irrelevant. At worst, it makes you part of the problem.

@tob @niklashoehne It's not nihilistic to demand a plan that keeps the planet habitable.

It's delusional to make plans that lead to purgatory and expect support for it, because at least it's not full hell. Especially if no plans before have ever been even remotely fulfilled.

Most people, polititians and voters alike, appear to still be in complete denial about the situation and the result of that is obvious and devastating. And I'm not happy about that...
