That last argument has always been my argument


We need to solve our way out of the problem with technology to counteract the effects of and/or adapt to climate change. Trying to conserve our way out the the problem is a path to certain and near term societal upheaval to stave off possible societal upheaval at some point in the future.

That doesn’t mean we can’t and shouldn’t take reasonable steps to reduce CO2 emissions now, but the level of reduction we’re told needs to occur in the next 10 years to avoid disaster in 50 years would result in immediate disaster given today’s technology.

Just like technology solved the impending “population bomb” and the widely predicted worldwide starvation from overpopulation, technology will solve this problem too.
