We have time to invent a fix. We can’t continue to wait for a policy change to change the world.
Technologists have the opportunity to build new solutions, improve renewable energy efficiencies, hack direct air capture. Technology holds the keys for 10,000:1 advantages.
Anyone who is interested in this...shoot me an email.

>> Technologists can help organize (via online tools)
Please participate via https://www.yourstake.org
For example: https://www.yourstake.org/campaign/green-america-fossil-bank...
Technologists can help organize (via online tools), educate and show (via charts, graphs, simulations). This is ultimately a social and political problem that requires the full force of governments. Individual efforts are largely symbolic. Not that we shouldn't do them, but convincing your legislators to enact real reforms is where we avoid life ending catastrophe. We can have a huge impact, we just have to find the areas where we can have a 1000:1 advantage vs a 1.5:1 advantage.
