Can you say more about how this will resolve?

@StevenK didnt really think about it to be honest. Tempertures already rised by 1.2° so, if we hit 2.5° before 2050 we are fcked anyway

bought Ṁ10 of NO

@Jede Do you mean 2.5° relative to pre-industrial temperatures or 2.5° relative to current temperatures (3.7° relative to pre-industrial temperatures)?

predicts NO

@StevenK Do you mean the temperature has to be that high in a single year or as a smoothed average? Can it be any year before 2050 or does it have to be 2050?

predicts NO

@StevenK Is "and crushing the Paris agreement" meant as a further condition or is that just another way to say the temperature increased at least that much?

bought Ṁ10 of YES

@StevenK ah ok, now i understand. I mean relative to pre-industrial temperatures. Average climate wordlwide. Itsa way to say we failed the agreement

predicts NO

@Jede Thanks. Do you mean an average temperature over for example 2045-2050 or do you mean a single year's temperature?
