    That The sad thing is, that we are not lacking in any ideas on how to fight greenhouse gase, but that fact that non (or too little) a are put into action.

    Nevertheless, this sound interesting.

      Yep, the sub-heading of the article pretty much sums it up:

      Technology has the potential to make deep cuts to emissions of the potent greenhouse gas but requires major investment

      The problem is that no company is gonna put forth the investment required if they aren’t forced to do it. And most governments don’t dare (or are too complacent / corrupt) to actually force them to do it.

        This reminds me of a podcast I heard a while back about waste recycling in germany - where there is basically a fully fledged out plan for waste separation coupled to energy generation (or something like that), but no company wants to invest or switch…

      Yeah at this point every discovery about a new way to manage it just feels like the news networks are trying to say “See everything will be fine, they are figuring it out. No need to worry, go back to your lives and don’t bother demanding change.”

        Exactly! It’s basically “we can choose how to save earth - we have sooo many possibilities”.
