Yes well at first we wanted to stop any increase. So there was a deadline for that. Then we wanted to cap it and the earlier we act the better it is. Now we've realized that at 1.5C some nasty chain reactions kick in and we'd really like to avoid that. However if you want to be reductionist about it then yes the time to act was when we learned the basics of this problem in the 1800's.

But the next best time is now. It just gets worse the longer we wait until at some point the planet hands us an eviction notice.
