Further delay means having to cut emission much more rapidly to make up for lost time. That could turn the goal of getting to net zero emissions by 2050 from merely very difficult to virtually impossible. Because cutting carbon emissions also reduces emissions of deadly particulates, delay could also cost thousands of lives.
