The case for burning our way to a cleaner planet
A novel and unproven plan to fight climate change and feed humanity.
By Marlene Cimons Nexus Media May 10, 2018
There are myriad proposals to fight climate change, but the simplest and most effective is to leave fossil fuels in the ground — simple in concept, yet elusive in practice, to put it mildly. Energy reformers face an economic system built on consumption and exploitation, a political system dominated by monied interests, and an energy system built around fossil fuels. As a result, even the most optimistic scenarios for averting climate change call for us to do more than cut carbon pollution — we must provide for “negative emissions,†ways of removing carbon dioxide from the air.
