I searched using this hashtag. Found this from Jeff White.
Jeff White Mar 30.
With only six, maybe 21 YEARS MAX, to avoid the worst of climate change, WE MUST IMMEDIATELY [to] make tough and unpleasant decisions and take decisive actions as well to save what we can.
For example, we must shutdown coal 100% by 2030, and oil and gas nearly 100% by no later than 2040, but fossil fuel voters and their elected politicians are resisting a transition to a net-zero emission world because it will cost them a lot of money. So, buy out the fossil fuel voters, one way or another.
After all, PEOPLE VOTE, not fossil fuel corporations.
As for China, Japan and Russia, heavily tax their exports to encourage nearly 100% net zero emissions compliance by 2050. India has already made a lot of progress. America may soon do so as well.
How will we pay for everything? Tax big businesses and the wealthy a lot more.
Historically, the wealthy would donate land and resources to communities in the time of their greatest need. Well, it’s that time again, but for the whole world.
The wealthy can provide the funds, and everyone else can do the work.
We can pay poor countries to stop illegal deforestation and start reforesting deforested regions
Using clean-energy-powered mining and distribution, olivine can be dumped in surf zones around the world to sequester earth’s surplus atmospheric carbon dioxide.
We can also build kelp farms, spread rock dust on agricultural land, invest in regenerative agriculture, and so on, and, using clean energy equivalents, build and operate millions of carbon capture machines.
Of course, we will still need to convert the world to net-zero emissions by nearly 100% by 2040 and 100% by 2050.
