    Your best attempt is a non-binding accord among nations

    No, that entire quote comes from the IPCC. Which is a scientific consensus, the thing that you’re clearly not familiar with.

    You stopped reading after eight words, but if you had bothered to follow the link you would have found that the scientific consensus covers more than just Paris. There are a lot of mitigation strategies, aka “things we can do”.

    Also, we absolutely ARE going to reach

    And the best you can do is more prophecy.

    No climate scientist claims to know what absolutely WILL happen.

        Climate science can, and has, predicted various scenarios that are based on different possible things that people could do in the future, including those that may limit warming to 1.5 C or less.

        But since climate scientists can’t predict with absolute certainty what people will actually do, they can’t predict with absolute certainty what will happen to our climate.
