      16. That means rising costs/ falling profits are a threat to fossil fuel interests beyond their immediate impacts on the bottom line: They also threaten to destroy investor confidence in the future of these companies, creating the conditions for the collapse of the carbon bubble.

      17. That's why when you hear predictions from fossil fuel interests and their allies that business-as-usual will continue for a long time, your first response should be total skepticism.https://twitter.com/AlexSteffen/status/961277188673646592 …

      This is the future the Carbon Lobby needs you to believe in, to keep valuations up, investors happy and finance flowing. There's essentially no chance it's the future we'll actually live in. https://insideclimatenews.org/news/06022018/eia-trump-greenhouse-gas-emissions-rise-climate-change-natural-gas-wind-solar-energy …

      18. Because the lesson carbon price modeling has to teach us is this: There are hundreds of strategic paths for climate action that put real economic pressure on fossil fuel interests, and many of them do not demand national government participation to work.

      19. Personally, I am fairly certain that if the American Republic exists in three years, we are going to see a major snap forward in Federal climate policies. The Trump gang can do some real damage, but they've also served to make it politically safe demand bold climate action.

      20. Even in the complete absence of U.S. Federal action, the combined impacts of many different players working many different strategies can add up—in the very near term—to truly disruptive pressures on the economy.

      21. In climate foresight terms, it looks possible to credibly test future outcomes with high carbon prices by treating those prices as stand-ins for the accreting financial impacts of a large, diverse climate movement.

      22. Doing that kind of foresight/modeling well enough to bank on its accuracy is a complex and gnarly challenge, for sure. But most of us do not need that precision. We just need to be able to suss out the possible direction of events, to inform our plans and hopes.

      23. For those fuzzier purposes, this way of looking at things is a powerful tool. It also helps us get what I see as the most likely path to successful action: A sort of swarming of efforts that add up to an effective price of carbon high enough to set free the clean economy.

      1. My brain is currently reorganizing itself with the ideas you outlined in this thread. I used to think what we're doing at Amazon (tech workers pressuring the company on climate) was part of a larger global cultural shift. That various actions all over the world...

      2. ...were helping to spark the cultural imagination necessary to make real political action possible. That each action inspired others and added up -- the sum greater than its parts, as it were.

      3. But now my mental model has come much more into laser focus. Our efforts are part of "A sort of swarming of efforts that add up to an effective price of carbon high enough to set free the clean economy." I didn't quite think of it in this way, but yes, that's what we're doing.
