I expect that we're not even detecting most collapses like these. It's like when your garage is on fire but you're in the bedroom on the other side of the house. It starts to smell funky but you're not yet aware that your whole house will be gone in the next hour

> I am uncertain about this whole "2030" neutrality thing, why not 2025? Why not next year?

"next year" for a politician is "right now". "in 2030" is "never" since they'll be long retired.

There is a funny thing happening right now in France, most politicians from the 70s, 80s,&c. are coming out saying we should focus on climate change, the very same people who actively participated in worsening the situation back in the days. They only wake up now because their life is basically over and they want to rip some last minute karma points. Short term individual goals will always defeat long term global ones
