Thanks Brent. I read Mermin and am both wiser and none-the. It seems to me
in this paper he is chickening out by saying that QM shouldn't really think
about the conscious observer, because that leads to the fairy tale of

Yeah, it will be costly whether we live or die. It's better to focus on a
techno fix rather than social engineering by red-greens, and the uber rich. If
we want to reduce heating, then reduce CO2, methane, water vapor. Easier said
then done, but what isn't?

I think you'll find China is trying to cut its pollution, particularly* air
