While he doesn't outright say that anthropogenic climate change is a thing, it's there. Hidden behind a paragraph telling you how he was supportive of the Sandinista movement in Nicaragua - which, unfortunately, for a large portion of quillette's audience puts him in the camp of "I was a radical anarcho leftist, I've defected." Hidden in the weeds about how we've taken institutional and systemic steps to reduce emissions. Hidden behind a reasonable common sense path to reduce carbon emissions (wood -> coal -> petrol -> ng -> nuclear).
