The pathway that works is best summarized as “electrify everything.”
To hit our climate goals, we need 100% adoption of electric solutions for households (electric vehicles, heat pumps, rooftop solar). This is your personal zero-carbon infrastructure.
Emergencies Are Opportunities for Lasting Change
Carbon sequestration would be a great technology to support, if only it were a good idea.
The government should fund sequestration research, within reason and with some skepticism, understanding that it’s a miracle technology that we’d like to have but don’t technically need, and probably can’t afford.
Natural gas is an unsafe, collapsing bridge to nowhere. We burned that bridge . . . with natural gas.
Your next car must be electric. You need to do everything you can to make your house run on solar power.
Whatever you invest in turning your house into a big battery that can give back to the grid will have more impact on climate change than any other purchasing decision you make.
