1.5 degrees is what we were supposed to be carefully avoiding because it was the level at which the real bad shit started happening (emphasis on started; it gets significantly worse going forward from here, also).

It is weird that not a lot of nations have said anything along the lines of “hey this is getting serious let’s plan to stop burning more fossil fuels every year than we ever have before”

My takeaway is that most nations are extraction companies with citizens they hold hostage through economic and violent means.
