Are We in a Global Emissions Inflection Point?

[mendez]

Trend lines alone say we’ll miss net-zero by 2050.
But looking at how expectations have shifted suggests we may be in the middle of an inflection point.
Clean power adoption is accelerating, and countries are cutting emissions faster than previously forecast.
The question becomes: do we read the future with algebra (linear trends) or calculus (rate of change)?
