Energy is a depressing topic. The more I learn, the more depressing it gets. This is the opposite of digital tech. The more you learn, the more exciting it gets.
from what I've read it's already too late to prevent some degree of ocean warming (+2C probably) and that will undoubtedly cause a lot of problems and hardships, but it's not too late to prevent the warming from being worse than that.

Humans are generally completely incapable of responding to a crisis until it’s already happened tho, especially where consensus is required

isn't that a (dis)confirmation bias? if we respond to something before it becomes a crisis it doesn't become a crisis and we don't think of it as a big scary problem because we were smart enough to just do it right in the first place.

Fair enough. I’m just saying look at the obstacles to doing anything effectively before people go, “Man, I’m tired of superstorms and pestilence and being unable to function properly as a human being or community or society.”
