So what's the jaw-dropping reality uncovered here?

Sorry, had to go do real work an the entire day flew by. Now I am on my phone and it won't let me copy and paste the relevant passage. I’ll try in the morning from my computer.

The finding, in a nutshell, was that if every source of clean energy was deployed optimally at a global scale, not only would atmospheric CO2 accumulation not stop, it would continue to rise exponentially.

Convert the entire planet to the most optimized versions of “green” energy sources and you pretty much fix nothing.

This is a sobering realization.

I urge you to read the paper, there’s a lot more detail there. They set out to prove renewables could “save the planet” only to discover it would be an exercise in futility.

Thank you very much for that! I will definitely read into it. Good summary.
