CHALAMET: I feel changed by the experience. I can’t speak about the actual film. The process of it, the yearslong endeavor into it, the dignity in playing something that actually happened. Those were new facets to my experience as an artist. Beyond that, people will make of it what they will, which is totally fair. I think that’s a great Bob worldview, too. Do with it what you want.
“Historical emissions, which refers to accumulated emissions over time, is important to consider,” he added.But humans are still expelling a vast amounts of carbon into the air today. Emissions between 2010 and 2019 were higher than any previous decade in human history.
Net emissions from 1850 to 2019 were approximately 2,400 gigatons of carbon dioxide. Of these, 58% occurred between 1850 and 1989 — a 139 year period — with the remaining 42% created between 1990 and 2019 — just 29 years, according to the latest IPCC estimates. About 17% of emissions since 1850 occurred between 2010 and 2019.Rapidly growing urban sprawls around the world are accounting for more greenhouse gases poured into the air with every passing year, the report said.“We are still in an age of fossil fuels as a global society,” said Professor Jan Christoph Minx, a lead author of the IPCC report and a climate scientist based in Germany. “We often forget that we have not managed yet to reverse the more than 250-year mega trend of global emissions growth.”
Minx said that any reductions by making systems more efficient or changing the sources of energy to more sustainable ones has been less than the increases from rising global activity levels in industry, energy supply, transport, agriculture and buildings.“The first step, is to reach peak emissions and enter an age of emissions reductions where every year we emit less and less greenhouse gases globally,” he added.

We wouldn’t even have a Beyoncé today if I had listened to her.
You gotta fight for your kids. I hope that lesson came through loud and clear. … That was important to me because I see a lot of parents that don’t, and my mom didn’t protect me.Tina Knowles-- entrepreneur, fashion designer, philanthropist and mother of Beyoncé and Solange-- has released a book, ‘Matriarch: A Memoir,’ and says being chosen for Oprah’s Book Club is “a great way to start it off.” (April 22)
KNOWLES: By the time I finished the book and I was ready to share it with them, both of them were on these really crazy schedules and I just didn’t want them to feel, “Oh, I got to stop and go read a book.” So, I sent them all of their parts and they approved the parts.KNOWLES: No. They were in agreement with everything.
