If you want to convince me Geoengineering is a bad idea, you must first convince me that AMOC collapse, permarfost thaw, wetland methane feedbacks, collapsing carbon sinks, Amazon dieback, Twaithes collapse etc. can be solved by emissions reductions alone.

My day started early with a meeting with other Lead Authors in my chapter as we prep the Zero Order Draft for the IPCC next Assessment Report. As it now became usual, the first minutes were dedicated to commenting the US situation. “How am I doing?”, they ask?

The news cycle this week has been a reminder of the ability of the US government and its client media to, seemingly overnight, downgrade the accepted value of a single human life. Which, of course, means the devaluing of _all_ lives.

Honestly, I think at this point this administration pulling out is better than the risk they would come to an approval session and just derail AR7 (had they found their way to the meeting place, incompetent as they are). And I don't think the IPCC will lack legitimacy by not involving a rogue govt.

On a global net basis, so far, 100% of renewable energy has gone to *new energy supply* rather than replacing FF energy. We know this because FF emissions are at a record high.
