Good, non-hysterical discussion of this often overly emotional topic.
We need to get going on fission. That is the solution. The obstacles are almost all regulatory and legal rather than technical. So it is a question of political will, which should be surmountable.
One bit of religion crept in: that inequality is part of the problem. Inequality doesn’t prevent adaptation. Poverty does. To create the wealth we need to manage climate change, we need more economic growth, not less. Tying the climate movement to growth-destroying central planning ideology (the only way to enforce equality) is a mistake.

What if the growth destroying central planning ideology is the actual objective here?
