Modern industrial countries exist with far lower emissions per person. We’re not screwed no matter what. We can - and other countries have - modernized to get under the line.
You don’t need to die to get your emissions under post-90s emission rates.
Far lower emissions per person, but far greater emissions overall
Aspiring to the emissions rate of Qatar because so few people live there is a call for genocide not environmental reform.
And we’re gonna blow right by 1.5 degrees and maybe hit 2 or 2.5 degrees.
Not thanks to India, where 1.4B people have managed to keep their gross emissions rate well under their 350M peers in the United States. But for some reason Americans will tell you the solution is to nuke Delhi to cover the balance.

Far lower emissions per person, but far greater emissions overall because there’s so many more people.
And we’re gonna blow right by 1.5 degrees and maybe hit 2 or 2.5 degrees. That’s pretty fucked.

Nuking Delhi is stupid.
We should nuke LA.
Or make 30% of Americans live on under $4 a day. That would reduce emissions.

Mother Nature beat you to it. Surely this means we’ll see large emissions reductions in California, right?
The fires didn’t kill enough of the invasive primate species to make a difference.
Then again, like you said, killing any number of these pests won’t make a dent anyway.
