A comment on What if carbon removal becomes the new Big Oil?. Parent comment
- Action must be taken before you see consequences
- The best time to act is right away, though it might not seem a big deal if you do
- You need to trust experts
- Taking some initial economic damage is unavoidable...
- ... but is ultimately much cheaper than not taking that hit
- strong leadership and a unified population is needed to align interests and create mutually beneficial cooperation
etc, etc.
But the US failed spectacularly, and most importantly learned nothing from it.
If we can’t control pandemic easily we are certainly going to fail to make any progress on global warming
