It does seem like we need a complete shutdown to deal with this. This current situation seems like an immediate emergency and not something we will deal with later down the track.

I think all we can try and do is what we can in out sphere of control and influence. Advice and tips are welcome!

We saw how well shutting down worked for a global pandemic. In the US, half the population took it as a declaration of literal war. We’re doomed.

It’s true, I don’t think you’d find consensus or cooperation with the idea, but we do seem to be at an impasse that we shouldn’t (but probably will) just ignore.

Yes it will, which is even more worrying but we have to do something. I think it’s going to have to be a joint carbon reduction and capture effort
