oh course we CAN solve climate change. We have a great deal of knowledge about where the emissions come from. It’s just that both problems, solutions and everything that’s needed inbetween is distorted and obfuscated in the name of profit, power and ideology. It’s undeniable that the mass adoption of nuclear power would be a huge step forward in terms of emissions. It’s statistically safer than fossile fuels, it’s not cyclical, thus more feasible without storage and infrastructure extravaganza. It’s also not perpetually 10 years away like fusion power. But, it’s political, a threat to powerful and profitable industries, and it threatens neocons on their unipolar powertrip. I could go on to list a whole bunch of other promising ideas, but their reasons for not existing are similar to the point of boring me before even writing them down.
