lol, that would mean the decline began to happen prior to 2016, or are we not doing the whole "we dont see the negative result for a long time" thing now? Theyre instant? SUHWEEET!!! that means what we are doing right now is completely fine, so all green initiatives that speak of clawing back carbon outputs to stop future decline is no longer relevant in any way shape or form. And I was gonna go put that tire fire out in the back yard, dont need to do that now
