With the fires in LA it’s hard to feel optimistic about the future. I want to be reminded that all is not lost, we need to do a lot that likely won’t be done but there are still things to do.

So let’s say Climate Stalin became Supreme Leader of the World or just President of the United States tomorrow. Whats next? What steps do we take to stop climate change getting worse and mitigate the damage we’ve already done?

What would be the consequences of just banning air travel? Do people really need to do it?

I mean people do have loved ones across distances. They also love driving cars, eating meat and many of them hate nuclear power

The point I'm trying to make here isn't necessarily that'd be easy to do, but that it would be simple to do.
