| Does anyone know the rough cost per /tonne? I doubt Stripe is investing much. a 100% increase in volume doesn't sound ridiculous to me. zoom alone grew revenue over 100% in like a month - dumb example but there are lots of others. The triple, triple, double, double, double unicorn formula is widely marketed as another example. There would surely be scale efficiencies in all these techniques too? I think we are past catastrophe at this point and even with your math that sounds like more of a win than I would have guessed! We have spent Trillions in the last year on stimi. that could have been targeted for dual purpose... and especially the proposed infrastructure bill should be changed but that would be another longgg thread. Just trying to argue a point that even 'small' and maybe even not feasible at the moment ideas need to be actively pursued and scaled when they work, even if not as efficient as a HN engineer's dream we need to have basically an immediate all out war to fight climate catastrophe at this point. Do this on 1000 different ideas and spend much bigger much faster we might stand a chance.. |
I am heavily bullish at the growth of carbon removal. Not as an excuse to continue emitting but as a growing awareness of necessity to restore more natural CO₂ levels.
