100% this.

The problem isn’t X. Or Y. Or W.

The problem is A+B+C+D+E+F+G+H+I+J+K+L+M+N+O+P+Q+R+S+T+U+V+W+X+Y+Z+A1+B1 … etc.

We need to change everything. Everything needs a reduction. AND we need to build massive nuclear CO2 extraction facilities that generate synthetic fuels for the places where we need energy density, seeded with carbon captured from the few places where we still release.

And we can do it. It won’t even be that expensive, certainly not as expensive as we fear, once we get going.

But we lack the will. Things need to get a lot worse before we will get our asses in gear.

What will actually happen is the rich people will get choice land in the areas still stable. The rest of us will be fighting for scraps and erecting shanty towns.
