David HoIt's not fashionable to talk about consuming less as a climate solution because our economy is based on selling us crap that no one needs.
Mike Tyka@davidho we live in a world filled with Juiceros :-/. I once went to CES in Vegas and found exhibition hall after exhibition hall filled with startups selling solutions in search of problems. The slogan that stuck with me was "Making swimming pools fun again". They were selling an AI robot submarine to swim with. Late stage capitalism. 😔
@mtyka I just looked up what Juicero was. Omg. We could use that money for MRV of ocean CDR.
@davidho that's right: we could build a supercomputer and run large GCM ensembles at high resolution which will, after much power gobbling computation, tell us with very high certainty that the efficiency of Alk addition is 0.70-0.85 mol/mol. The Juicero of MRV, so to speak 😆
