And a global move to remain on oil means certain destruction for the entire planet soooooooo.

If we haven't already crossed the line to total destruction, maybe we should stop drinking the total destruction juice?

There is no total destruction. Just increasingly severe but not total destruction.

We are currently at the point of do we leave it at millions dead or increase it to billions? Don't worry, a few people will still survive.

im not sure about this. the rate of change and with extinctions. I think there is a fair chance we wipe out complex life over a certain level.

I mean, bad faith? There is already, and has been, war and migration due to fossil fuel dependence. So, this is their rhetorical endgame?

I take the message that global warming is now such a huge concern for most people, that they are scraping the bottom of the barrel to keep clinging on fossil fuels.
