I'm extremely suspicious of any claim to solve the "climate crisis" if only we empower the Great Savior while surrendering liberty and money.
It costs zero dollars to reduce CO2, as it's economic activity which is driving it. Therefore the way to reduce CO2 emissions is to live in poverty and don't have many children.
It's an intractable problem at the moment, which is why various "genius" schemes to address it have failed. Heck, the most effective thing to date to reduce CO2 emissions occurred by chance (or accident) when the WuFlu decimated the global economy.
As always, I'm not arguing for ignoring the situation or do nothing, just saying only a great fool believes in benevolent genius leadership, and spending your way out of an extremely complex problem. Any effective strategy must incorporate fundamental human motivation or it will be doomed to failure.
