I think I need to politely disagree with you on this point.
If co2 emissions were slowing at a meaningful rate, we should be able to see the upward trajectory start leveling off. What we DO see is almost no change in the trajectory of the chart, indicating that current carbon emitters haven’t cut back enough to matter, if at all.
I’m not suggesting that no changes on that line means no “progress”, but one could argue that its not meaningful progress if we aren’t seeing any changes in that trend.
