Top climate scientists are sceptical that nations will rein in global warming

Nature conducted an anonymous survey of the 233 living #IPCC authors last month and received responses from 92 scientists — about 40% of the group. Their answers suggest strong scepticism that governments will markedly slow the pace of #GlobalWarming, despite political promises made by international leaders as part of the 2015 #ParisClimateAgreement.

@zleap @freemo nobody comes out of prisons reformed. they're just storage facilities where people end up getting psychologically broken, probably injured and improperly healed, institutionalized, then abandoned back to society in worse shape than they started.

it's about as moronic and having people memorize answers for 10 years and then calling them smart.
