    2) Same goes for gas - where LCA emissions of CCGT typically 100-200gCO2/kWh

    1. Not for wealthier nations where peaking earlier & mitigation rate higher even for 2°C

  3. Smart video here on the importance of checking before sharing. And this applies to you too, liberals!

  4. As a general rule I would recommend to not look at an individual year to assess effects of climate change.

  5. Amazing support in a country with lots of wind turbines: 92% of Danes in favor of further development of wind energy

  6. Can anyone point to informative responses from sea ice experts on this? As a non-expert on sea ice, at face value this looks very disturbing

  7. Puts in perspective the derisory funds (reparation?) that we're still arguing about for poorer nations.

  9. . we need models built on political economy, culture and psychology, not just Earth sci

    . Agree. But less sense of urgency & much reduced pressure for policies to drive profound low-CO2 social change if BECCS is assumed.

  11. . doesn't cause emissions gap but secures that clock is still at 5 to 12 despite lack of action

  12. In reply to

    . I view cost-optimal 'solutions' as a dangerous distraction from transparent & heuristic scenarios

  13. guess if calculates his CO2 emissions and tube amp fits within an equitable budget then fine.

    . Fair point. I've cut my CO2 in ~decade by ~70%. Not enough I know, hence a genuine thanks for the prompt to do more.

  16. Norway emits about 10 times as much from a production, extraction perspective

  17. As always cuts thro partial optimistic guff with numbers that paint a more complete picture. i.e. cut coal/oil/gas production

  18. In reply to

    . Is comparing an amp with multiple flights reasonable? And don't ask me, another rich white man, ask those being impacted by our CO2
