THE COSTS ARE ASTRONOMICAL: SIX TRILLION DOLLARS TO PHASE OUT FOSSIL FUELS AND REPLACE THEM WITH RENEWABLE ENERGY!!
Average incomes will fall by almost a fifth within the next 26 years as a result of the climate crisis, according to a study that predicts the costs of damage will be six times higher than the price of limiting global heating to 2C.
...
It also found that reducing emissions was far cheaper than doing nothing and accepting more severe impacts. By 2050, it calculated mitigation costs – for example, from phasing out fossils and replacing them with renewable energy – to be $6tn dollars, which is less than a sixth of the median damage costs for that year of $38tn.
THESE SOCIALISTS WHO BELIEVE IN SO-CALLED "SCIENCE" ARE ABSOLUTELY MAD!!

The worst effects of climate change will be felt by other people. That's just rotten luck for them. I'm sure they will all enjoy living in their Mad Max life and there will be zero repercussions for us!

The report is frightening, it's a shame the Guardian has slightly mangled its reporting of it. Its headline:
whereas the report says:
If world incomes were going to drop 19% in absolute terms in 26 years, I would be buying tinned goods and ammo...
