This article explains what is at stake here. Here is one very pertinent point:
Point D.5.3 of the summary for policymakers gives an estimate of the cost: “Global model pathways limiting global warming to 1.5°C are projected to involve the annual average investment needs in the energy system of around 2.4 trillion USD2010 between 2016 and 2035.” – That’s 2.4 trillion dollars a year! Need I say more.
