The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Believing In Science

 During the pandemic and Trump's ridiculous response, the cultural left began to boast that they believed in science. As we confront a greater threat than the pandemic - global warming - is there reason to believe that science can save us from the threat science created?

Carbontech is a fascinating example of how clever humans can be when prompted by a crisis. While the urgency of the pandemic helped prompt the use of mRNA vaccines, they had been in development for years. If you combine industrial processes for using CO2 with carbon capture technologies, maybe we won't cook after all.
