Right, because 30°C in the middle of September is totally normal and in no way an indication that climate change is about to get completely out for control.

Temperatures in September are already past 1,5 degree increase. We need to do something. Now.
Not turning the public against climate action, for one. We still need political majorities if you want to get anything done.
Second, we had the solution in the 90s with nuclear power. Now it’s inevitable that we will see 2,5-3 degrees warming, since renewables can’t replace reliable sources of energy and the world isn’t willing to de-industrialize. By not excluding nuclear power, net zero by 2050 is achievable. By excluding it, net zero will never be achieved.
We might de-industrialize our country, but industry will just move to countries that do have reliable energy infrastructure. Look at industry moving from Germany to the USA, for example.
