Yeah, I'm not so sure that's the right tack. I mean, airlines (and airplane mfgs) aren't the most earth friendly enterprises, at their core. Even if we could magically swap out a zero emissions fuel (which we can't: https://www.wri.org/insights/us-sustainable-aviation-fuel-emissions-impacts),

Sorry, Jochen, just about everything you recommend will make things worse. I also wrote about the failure of the climate models almost ten years ago. You nailed one of the biggest problems, though: even really smart guys don't know shit about global warming. On Sat, Jan 27, 2024 at 3:11 PM

She is correct. The IPCC reports are also very conservative. An informal poll of the IPCC representatives gave 2.5C as the likeliest final temp rise. That is a huge amount, however probably not enough to eliminate humanity. We are turning the corner: carbon emissions have plateaued. However

I am not a big fan of Sabine. Her book "Lost in math" is too pessimistic and too negative for me. She earns money from her YouTube video channel. The more sensational the content, the more clicks. That being said I agree that climate change is one of the biggest problems, and the outlook is not
