I doubt anyone could be the yellow line. But better than Biden is definitely possible

Maybe Gore could’ve been the yellow line

Starting sooner is always better.

We definitely can, it just would take a lot of effort and sacrefices the majority aren't willing to take.

We could shut down every coal power plant tomorrow, better to have some brown outs than to not have a planet at all.

I suspect it's actually the minority who would be unwilling to sacrifice. Most people sacrifice every day, seemingly more and more every financial quarter, but not for any greater good. Just so that wealthy minority can pad the bottom line they think will make them safe in an increasingly precarious world.

And bring the unemployment rate to a new high? I agree coal plants need to shut down and be replaced but it can't all be done in one snap.

Climate change will kill many more people than unemployment does.

this is true, but that doesn't make it more acceptable

i could be the yellow line, i'll stand on the white house balcony and take a piss on the citizens

We can reach the yellow line, it would just require telling the fossil fuel industry to get fucked, and rapidly investing in green energy, reducing waste, and probably stepping on the toes of the Millitary Industrial Complex.
