This does not mean that global and regional systems should not be overhauled to reduce carbon emissions. A rapid reduction in emissions is necessary to avoid further global warming and changes to the climate system.

In order to ensure the sustainability of our species in conditions that do not endanger its life, a new development model must be adopted.
