    Wow this is so bad. He basically downplays thw risk by moving goalposts fromn 5°C to 3 and treats economic growth will somehow save us. 3 degrees is somehow not a distaster even though its widly agreed to be. He claims that its not going to effect economy and agriculture… Ok dude. He really claims human effect is tiny compared to natural, which is stupid on so many levels. He also for some reason thinks huricans will not have much effect, and Amazon rainforest will be fine despite the evidence pointing to a global ecosystem collapse.

    Tldr: He swaped doomism for compliancy.
