I think you missed my point.
We cannot take ANY more time quibbling about who has to stop using fossil fuels first - the climate doesn't "care" where the greenhouse gases come from.
People in the future won't forgive us for IGNORING FACTS, and still insisting we have a "right" to burn fossil fuels.
