I hope there are not any tipping points in his system...
@rahmstorf den #Alkoholkonsum insgesamt weiter zu senken bis 2050 klänge ja gar nicht so doof, mit vielen Maßnahmen wie:
- alkoholfreier Sport / Stadien
- höhere Besteuerung
- Werbeverbot usw.
Wir setzen uns übrigens für ein rauchfreies Berlin bis 2040 ein, vor allem für Gesundheit und Klimaschutz, und fordern
- rauchfreie Clubs
- rauchfreie Außenterrassen
- höhere Besteuerung von Tabakprodukten
- rauchfreie öffentliche Gebäude/Krankenhäuser, inkl Eingangsbereiche
#rauchfrei
In the interest of accessibility, I’m reposting and calling in @PleaseCaption @theimagecaptioner — one of these promised to re-re-post the image with an autogenerated caption. The other will nag me that I should have done it myself 🙂
@ArneBab @rahmstorf @PleaseCaption @theimagecaptioner I'm lazy too but just used Google Lens for optical character recognition for you:
Man announces he will quit drinking by 2050
Image of grey haired man holding a beer
A Sydney man has set an ambitious target to phase out his alcohol consumption within the next 28 years, as part of an impressive plan to improve his health.
The program will see Greg, 73, continue to drink as normal before reducing consumption in 2049 when he turns 101. Taylor said it was important not to rush the process: "It's not realistic to transition to zero alcohol overnight. This requires a phased approach", he said, adding that whisky drinkers were the real problem. Greg is lobbying for additional investments in beer to maintain beer supply-chain security.
Greg will be able to bring forward drinking credits earned from the days he hasn't drunk over the past forty years, enabling him to reach net-zero but keep drinking. To assist with the transition, he has bought a second beer fridge which he describes as the 'capture and storage' method. He is also investing in direct alcohol extraction from blood technology.
Part 3 of 3.

@rahmstorf Yeah. I concluded sometime after the 2000 US Presidential election was stolen by GWB that the political approach was weak and the most viable approach to stop climate change was financial: make fossil-burning unprofitable.
Many have been working on that (including President Gore). Follow the Lazard LCOE numbers for progress.
I'm 70, is it to early for me to adopt this plan?
