Depending on where you live and how you heat your house, fixing this one thing might be more effective at reducing emissions than everything else you’re doing combined.
- iinnPP 3y agoWould paying for such upgrades for people who cannot afford them be considered cost effective carbon dioxide removal?
- master-lincoln 3y agono, because it does not remove carbon dioxide, but prevent future emissions.
- Reason077 3y agoIsn't the net result the same? Is it better to pay (for example) $500 to remove a tonne of CO2 from the atmosphere, or to pay $100 to prevent the same amount of CO2 from being emitted in the first place? If CO2 removal costs us more than emissions reduction technologies, isn't it a false economy?
