I had no other choice once I did The Math and saw what things add up to – and how little time we have left before the global temperature goes past the Game Over limit of 2°C. But our friends in the oil, coal and gas industry have 5,795 gigatons of carbon on the books. Like the issue of oil drilling in Hermosa Beach.

However, coal and other fossil fuels still provide 80 percent of our energy, 70 percent of our electricity, and will be a major part of our energy future for decades. The US Energy Information Administration projects increases in US coal utilization in 2013, and other countries have been increasing their imports of coal.

The rising threat of global warming requires that every country act now. One might argue that the onus of reversing global warming should fall on the developed world, which on a per capita basis consumes much more energy and emits significantly more greenhouse gases.

Chemical plants on dedicated platforms then process part of the hydrogen, combining it with nitrogen to make ammonia, or with carbon dioxide to produce substitutes for fossil fuels.

When Sir Nicolas Stern said that governments would need to spend 1 per cent of global gross domestic product (GDP) to stabilize greenhouse gas emissions at 450 parts per million, people balked at the amount.
