How should we take excellent and honest analysts like Johan Rockstrom, who is one of the best among many, who are great analysts of the facts, facts that strongly suggest we are probably doomed, and then, end their podcasts with "\"We can still make it if we act it in time,” which I believe they do not believe.
The language often used, “Act in time”, may be a replacement for “Do it in time", because “Do it in time" is closer to actions and more likely to get a follow-up question, "Do what?” and they are, embarrassed to go there.)
