@ariaflame @claesdevreese the point where the effects are manageable already requires negative emissions though. but it is indeed nice to see that some trends aren't working against us. but one still has to be careful and not focus on just electricity since the grand total still looks pretty bleak.

@zimward @claesdevreese Negative net emissions. So we need plants etc. to be absorbing more than we are emitting. There are sinks for the gases. We can shift some of our other energy usage to electricity which we can fuel by RE. We can use solar for heat generation for at least low level heat requirements. It's possible, the trick is to make it affordable and appealing at the same time as making using fossil fuels unaffordable and unappealing.
