Hello Good people, it has been Long! Long indeed it has been! But not any longer. We have been silent and apparently politics have taken priority as it usually does, but not any longer!! Here comes a debate on LinkedIn by One, :
Globally, What is the Single best strategy for mitigating anthropogenic climate change?
Here are His Suggestions:
•
Energy conservation/ efficiency pertains to not only reducing energy
demand by residential and commercial buildings but also increasing fuel
efficiency standards in the transportation sector in addition to more
mass transit. Hybrid and electric vehicles can also be included in this
category.
• Renewable energies include solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal and biomass/biofuels.
• The nuclear energy category includes not only uranium-based nuclear
fission but also next generation nuclear technologies such as traveling
wave reactors, thorium-fission and possibly hydrogen fusion.
• Planetary geoengineering refers to various methodologies including
carbon capture and storage, biochar, ocean-iron fertilization,
terraforming deserts with agriculture and forestry. It also includes
solar radiation management (SRM) including stratospheric aerosols, cloud
brightening and white roofs.
• Slowing population growth refers to increasing women’s rights and
providing better access to birth control for both genders. Enacting
one-child policies can also be included in this category.
***If you want to provide a ranking of the effectiveness of each
category (1st, 2nd, 3rd..) rather than choosing a single best answer
please feel free to post this.
What say U?
