I think it is time for a campaign of examples. Unless we do X within 1 year, here is a graphic newsreel of the consequences. 2 years out it looks like this. And in 5 years this. You will see this first hand unless YOU participate in the solution. Your children will likely bear the brunt of (y)our inaction. Don’t take too long to think about it! Actions need to start tomorrow morning.

Dan - You are and remain an inspiration. I saw you speak in Hattiesburg MS last year. Amazing. The reason that I mention this is that while our corporate HQ is in Austin, our labs are beside the campus of Southern Miss. In those labs, since the issuance of the first UN IPCC report in 2018, that shook the world to the sobering reality of climate change, we have created Carbon Capturing Costings, that when applied to Massively Iterated Vertical Surfaces can directly capture, fix and sequester very large quantities of CO2, one of the atmospheric culprits giving rise to man-made climate change. We are well-beyond the proof of concept stage, and the technology has been awarded a prestigious coatings industry. I say this to let you, and your readers to give you hope in the face of this existential crisis, worsening by the day. We are building the first commercial prototype next year. And each one of us can help. Contact ANY politician you know. Tell them that they need to focus a great deal of their efforts at pulling down every gram of the 40+Trillion kilograms we emit per year. And, then constantly keep in your future vision a world that is no longer in the grips of this crisis. It really helps!
