It is hard to implement a technological fix without political will.
Politcal can reserve funding, can align businesses and academics, can make that technological windfall we haven't yet invented a little mote likely.
What if there is no technological solution, or we fail to find it? Having political agreement and unity to fallback on is a good thing. Even if we do something terrible to the planet, we can mitigate that together, instead of ignoring it or making it worse.

- ra1n85 9y agoTrump is the antithesis of unified political will. He's a symptom of a deeply divided society. The focus on finding consensus and political will on climate change is putting the cart before the horse. There's no consensus or deal making to be had with this degree of division and anger.
- sqeaky 9y agoI agree. Not being able to get it doesn't change the fact that we need it.
