There are lots of ways we are tackling the climate crisis, bringing down emissions and sucking carbon out of the atmosphere. But which method is the most cost-effective? For a given investment, which draws down the most carbon emissions? In this video I answer that question... and then talk about why that answer doesn't necessarily mean much.

The best option of all of this is pressuring China. There is no justification for the amount of emissions they produce and are projected to produce. They don't give a single fuck about reducing emissions because they can point to the Carbon per captia stat as if more people justifies more pollution. Every other 1st world country in the world is reducing emissions except for the 1 country that pollutes more than the next 6 biggest polluters combined.

Pressuring China is good, but not good enough to beat out biking. (They're also not either-or options, so there's no real excuse not to do the latter.)
