about going back. is the us or are any countries around the world working to take that glass and bring it down, working to not only prevent future emissions but start to even lower the amount of emissions that a country emits? 0h, we re absolutely working on lowering our emissions globally. the united states, europe and all countries, i mean, all countries in the world basically have signed on to the paris agreement at this point with different levels of goals. and so we re all working on filling the glass a lot more slowly. the problem is, is that it takes a lot of time. the energy system is a multi trillion dollar system that underlies the entire global economy. the easier parts, decarbonising the electricity sector, for instance, we re really moving along. wind and solar are some of the cheapest forms of energy there are right now. i also want to ask you about another takeaway from this report, saying that there is a 98% likelihood that at least one of the next five years, and the f
