    The elephant in the room still exists, all the added CO2. I applaud change, and fast moving even more, but it needs to be faster

      Not only CO2 but also Methan. It is 84 times more harmful in the first 20 years. But it is degrading on its own with a half-live of 7-12 years in the atmosphere. Methan makes up 20 to 30% of the human made GHG. Change to a plant based diet can reduce the emissions by 40%.

      It is one of the few things we can change on our own very fast and does not need additional technological solutions to have a big impact.

        and the warmer it gets, the more we’ll see methane hydrates bubbling up to the surface and adding gigatons more to the problem. vicious cycle.
