I saw it originally watching Simon Clark. Reviewing, it looks like the chart shown is actually a great example of a terrible graph; it uses 5 year periods then switches to 1 year periods without clear indication, making it look flatter than it would otherwise. If I adjust for this in a photo editor, emissions have barely slowed. I was misled, sorry for passing that on and thanks for questioning it.

Nazi salutes. He did it twice.

Some good news:

• emission rates have plateaued; we are still destroying the planet, but no longer accelerating the rate at which we do it
• Solar panels (unsubsidized) are the cheapest method of electricity generation as of 2022
• there is a fundamentally limited amount of fossil fuels, so as long as we don’t turn to Venus 2.0 by 2100 we will deplete most coal and oil and it will be possible for our ancestors to repair the planet over the following centuries.

Yeah I know even this “good news” is bleak, but it’s worth celebrating. There is some hope.

+1 on wildcard addresses. Any 10 min mail site is also great for anything unimportant.

Ok, that’s what I’ll do. Thanks so much for the info! 😁
