Every indication is that climate change is accelerating faster than predicted. That has been the constant refrain for DECADES now. "Oh... we didn't expect that to happen in this century...."

Moving ahead with green technologies is obviously a game changer for our lives right now. Right now it's a wonderful turn of events and I'm all for it. But it's not going to stop climate change from disrupting our species in major ways toward the latter half of this century.

The game is already over.
