Politicians and leaders are betting on tech solutions because no one is ready or willing to implement massive reduction in CO2 production and bear the societal consequences.
Once we get to sulfide injection we'll just factor it into acceptable levels of CO2 production, to keep things running until nothing can be done about adapting to climate change anymore.
If anything, Covid convinced me that's the kind of scenario to expect.
Of course I hope for something else but better be prepared for the worst.
