We don’t need to invest a shit ton of money to stop climate change. We just need to decide to do it. There are cost-effective ways to do it. What we’ve been lacking is the consensus to do it.
The costs of remaining at +2C are several orders of magnitude higher than going back to +1C.
And in all cases the most impacted ones due to climate change effects or climate change fight expenses are the ones at the bottom.
Solar won and it’s the storage of cheaply generated power than now needs maximum investment and support.
Nuclear continues to be discussed mainly because it reverses the decentralisation of energy reliance that’s occurring as solar spreads.
