My 2 year old blog post has the answer to that.

People come up with all sorts of silly ideas rather than actually addressing the real issue.

Addressing virus software will save the world exactly 0 days.

UPDATE

Coal usage is at record usage for power generation. It emits over twice as much CO2 as natural gas

while these silly little ideas about optimizing your website to use less electricity or using a different computer language are a fun way to waste the day, all the coal we keep burning is costing us significant time.

Anything else is better. Waiting for the windmills isnt working.

Anyway, just the occasional reminder that we keep squandering valuable time and now we need a bigger miracle.

Good luck with the shaming to address the problem.

UPDATE 2

"Stop all economic growth"

No one said that. That is a right wing sound bite simply meant to add noise to the discussion.

The blogpost only states that we should use gas instead of coal, so if anyone hopes for an answer to the original question you dont need to click.

"Stop all economic growth"

I disagree with doing that even in the most developed countries, I've no idea how you imagine selling that to the least developed countries. Or by force?

However, I agree we aren't really able to do enough - that there's a lot of virtue signalling so we feel a little better about ourselves - and a technological solution is what's required.
