That's not the scientific consensus Anyone who says there's a hard cutoff point for "human survival" is making shit up

Accelerationism is especially insane on the issue of climate, where TIMING MATTERS Small things done now have a butterfly effect down the line, a little bit of improvement now is worth a ton more improvement 20 years from now

And since right now not pumping more CO2 into the atmosphere for the hell of it would be an improvement....

It is SO HARD to get this into people's thick heads; I've despaired of being able to do it.

'If the emissions gap is not closed by 2030, it is very plausible that the goal of a well-below 2°C temperature increase is also out of reach.' https://www.ipcc.ch/2019/09/22/united-in-science-report-climate-summit/ …

That's a good goal, but it's still just an arbitrary cutoff. There's a meaningful difference between 1.9 degrees and 1.6, and another meaningful difference between 2.6 degrees and 2.3. One of those happens to be above 2, but that doesn't flatten into "makes no difference".
