    Yeah the ember report is heartening at this time. Does help maintain the belief that I have that we can limit Tue worst effects of climate change.

      If we can entirely transition to non fossil energy then we can maybe even fix it. It’s technologically possible to sequester carbon from the atmosphere, it just doesn’t make sense to do if you’re burning hydrocarbons to do it

      The main problem though is that would require global coordination and cooperation the likes of which humanity has never seen and it will never happen under capitalism

        Well that and every proposal I’ve seen to remove geologically significant amounts of carbon from the atmosphere have all been utterly whacky geoegineering projects that would definitely have knock on effects that we would never see coming.
