I’ve heard it posited that for one or another reason climate change could create a dictatorial regime one or another way. I hope humanity figures out a way to pull our collective heads out of the sand and start doing stuff before anything like a dictator kicks up...
- emteycz 6y agoTo the GP asking what's stopping us: 150 usd per month is a quarter of average wage here.
- simonebrunozzi 6y agoYou're correct, but let's say the target is 1/10th of it, or $15/month, therefore affordable by many. Still, there's something that prevents us, as a society, from doing it.
- ianai 6y agoWell I’ve seen at least one crowd fund project to sequester co2. It wasn’t particularly impressive scale though iirc.
- ISL 6y agoThere are sequestration projects out there already, as well as reforestation efforts. If you want to put your $150/mo to work today, you can! One might also consider putting that $150 toward eliminating inefficiencies somewhere in the world -- subsidizing renewable power or improving fuel efficiency in some way.
