| Subject | Calif. action vs. global warming trajectory |
| Comment | California, the car-drivingest state, has taken admirable steps to slow down the human causes of global warming. Other states and whole countries will follow sooner or later. Coal-mining states will have the hardest transition to new industries and jobs. Yet without PRC China's fullest effort to change from coal energy, the jig is up for our unique Planet Earth. (PRC is still poor-mouthing other wealthy nations.) So I'm still active but pessimistic. Goodbye polar bears and pika by 2050! Goodbye island nations by 2099! Goodbye "sea-level" cities and population centers! Sorry for such gloom. But have you seen many drivers keeping their speed at or under max. lately? Avoiding climate catastrophe would have required human behavioral change on a massive scale. |
