i think it's fair to say, you know, i think you are kind of outlining that in your answer. The issue there is that then you have this kind of abstraction of the problem of reducing omissions. And so instead of starting to phase down fossil fuel production and use, what we're actually going to do is, you Know, use these forests and make sure that they are protected. It can even a lead to very worrisome things.
Paris Marx is joined by Sabrina Fernandes to discuss what came out of COP26, what it actually means to have net-zero emissions by 2050, and all the mechanisms that countries are developing to delay necessary action to reduce emissions.
