• Resumen

  • The article examines whether human activity can be reduced enough to reverse the effects of climate change. It cites studies that to limit global warming by 1.5 degrees Celsius, one trillion tons of carbon dioxide emissions will have to be removed from Earth's atmosphere in the next 100 years. Particular attention is given to how a carbon tax could help address the costs.
