2 statements about Maximum Temperature, every show

Pricing carbon in 2000 would have cheaply capped warming near 1°C.
“Had we addressed this 20 years ago, wouldn't have been that costly. We could have had a very smooth transition, and the maximum temperature would be somewhere around where we are today. Which is to say, not great, but not catastrophic.”

Delaying global carbon pricing by three years adds 0.1°C to peak warming.
“For every three years that we delay pricing emissions, the maximum temperature, the best case, or let's say the optimal solution is another 10th of a degree onto that expected maximum temperature.”
