Sadly, I failed at this game to cut emissions and save the world and got sacked. Effing public! See how you get on.

Indeed. It's a neat way to convey concepts, but each of the choices presented will/would ne very challenging to implement.

I ended up at 1.45C.

1.89 degrees.

Mission to Mars?

 

[CarrotMan]

1.45 degrees here as well. Pretty much just took the most bold decisions all the way through, so not much chance of this happening in real life I am afraid...

Thanks for sharing @wulbert
