00:34:38 “Top 1% of emitters globally have emissions that are twice as high as the bottom 50% of the global population.”
01:05:46 “Climate change is not an end point problem. Climate change is about the accumulation of emissions. And so what you do or don’t do in year 1, 2 and 3 will have massive repercussions on what you need to do by Year 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10.”
