It might be true that the world needs to remove ten billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere every year but it’s never going to happen for many different reasons: technical, financial, social, environmental, governance, etc. If we don’t reduce CO₂ emissions, we’re screwed. That’s it.
Removing CO2 from atmosphere vital to avoid catastrophic tipping points, leading scientist says
10bn tonnes must be captured from the air every year to limit global heating to 1.7C, says Johan Rockström

Snail shaped glacier ice at Jökullsárlón, Iceland…this area is known as Diamond Beach due to the bright crystals of ice contrasting with the black sand.

As our cities get hotter and hotter, dark coloured buildings make no rational sense, even if you like that aesthetic (I do).
The same goes for dark coloured roofs.
And dark coloured streets and parking lots with dark coloured asphalt.
That really should be obvious.

Hindsight is 20/20 ofc but it seems slightly easier to imagine rallying people to climate politics in the U.S. around rent and mortgages becoming unaffordable vs. far-off, somewhat abstract goals like net-zero, or “beating” China by building more EV Hummers

The world will eventually run out of fossil fuels, so our choice is really between stopping their use on our own terms now or being forced to find alternatives in the future while having a terrible climate, tens of millions of deaths from air pollution and climate disasters, higher sea level, etc.
