No one knows what technology will be created that will have an impact on the severity and costs of climate change. Much better to make progress as fast as possible with research and scientific progress than diverting time and resources to endeavours that will only marginally slow down the pending catastrophe and have the side effect of slowing progress toward solutions that actually solve the underlying problem (dependence on fossil fuels). The only way out is by increasing our knowledge so we can actually solve the problem. The other way is parochialism and staticity.
