Going carbon zero "right now" will just trade one disaster for another. And some argue an even bigger diaster. Energy is required for human life to live now.

Energy is required for human life to live now. We cant go back with out massive famine and death. Just cutting boff energy production not get to Carbon zero NOW like many are demanding is not feesable, realistic, or moral
- signalsnooper 5y agoI think that implies that carbon emitting methods are the only way we can produce energy. Sure, constructing hydroelectric plants emits carbon right now but ideally it wouldn't in the future. We shouldn't be spending money and energy constructing new gas pipelines in 2021, for example. That effort would be better spent on emission free energy sources or on electric vehicle manufacturing capabilities.
- JimTheMan 5y agoI'm advocating switching energy sources very rapidly and shrinking the population gradually. The alternative is literally the death and famine that you are afraid of.
