Climate Change Guest lecture by Solomon Goldstein-Rose [Steven Pinker rationality course 2020]



The Chad European Federalist

The 100 % solution by Solomon Goldstein-Rose:
https://www.solomongr.com/

It is possible to fully solve climate change
before scientists’ 2050 target.
It requires changing equipment, not limiting lifestyles.

It relies on government innovation projects to scale up manufacturing so that clean systems become cheap enough to spread rapidly even in developing countries (which emit 2/3 of ghgs).​

Solving climate change will give more people access to energy, thereby reducing poverty.

It will make heating, driving, etc cheaper.
It will create millions of good jobs in the industrialized countries that lead the way.


This book is well-written and organized, and it has beautiful images, graphs, and charts to help make the more complex aspects of climate change extremely easy to understand. But the best part about The 100% Solution is how it changed my outlook from one of fear and despair to one of hope. Solomon makes a very compelling argument that no, we are not actually doomed, we can solve this. And whichever country takes the lead in solving climate change will be able to boost their economy tremendously. Highly recommended.”
