The dividend from the taxes should be evenly distributed to everyone. This would compensate people who have good environmental lifestyle and allow local business that produce low carbon (due low distribution) to be more competitive

This remind me of interventionism described on the antifragile book. Also the role of small stresses in the health of a system.

You don't need to work from home we can find/create spaces near your with like minded people in your community. Productivity is not the main reason big tech want people back to cubicles. They need to justify the spaceship shaped o

They are huge so even with good isolation they spend too much energy in acclimatization. That kind of urbanization is made for cars so the streets are empty and you need to travel by car everytime to some mall to buy things.

I have a nokia 800 tough with 4G. I bought after an experiment of living without internet at home. At the time I was using a 3310 with 3G. The experiment lasted 6 months and ended a month or two before Covid strike.

I switched to a dumbphone three years ago. It often creates restrictions that are surmountable. It prevents me from participating in the gig economy for example it is very difficult (or impossible?) to call an uber or use a take away app. T

The protests happen in part because the demonstrators do not trust the government to spend the money well. They are afraid that they will distribute it to the "usual few" or "subsidize the lazy ones". Distributing the t

Aviation is responsible for 2% of carbon emissions but was growing at 4% per year. Aviation is responsible for the mass tourism that drives people out of cities to make way for airbnb's. This increases their commute. It also increases

We could channel the consuption taxes to a UBI. This would make local economies more competitive compared the global economy. For example, taxes on fossil fuels would make products made from far away more expensive than local products. With

Maybe you are right, but we need to try something and for me this is what make sense. For instance did you notice the effect of covid in the environment? We need to challenge assumptions. The assumption of growth is one of them. We need to

I am a tech guy, but I am not very optimistic about finding a technological solution for this. The problem is energy, how much energy do we need to change to move to a greener infrastructure? There is also the paradox of jevrons [1]. I need

We can try degrowth. We need to find a way to live well and decrease the GDP. The article talks about the limits of growth for, those who don't know what it is you can watch this video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k

The only way to achieve climate change goals is to accept degrowth of the economy GDP. Some months ago a climate change dashboard appeared in HN. I played with the variables but it was not possible to decrease the CO2 level significantly.

This fits in with low technology and degrowth. For example, this site [1] only works with energy collected from a solar panel, challenging the idea that things always need to be available. When he talks about technologies that make us more

Does anyone know why the probability of climate change is only ~1 in 1000? As far as I know, there is a consensus of very real threat is already happening and at a high pace.
