Yeah, I think there's a novelty factor in a lot of "innovations" that claim to be the secret to solving climate change. And while not inherently bad they sort of miss the picture in my opinion. Like, the future, in my opinion, should be made of trains and apartments. The dull things that we know work.

On a much more insidious level (not that I think anyone here has ill intent, nor the people working on these technologies) it almost implies that we don't have the technology to stop our impact on the climate. We have the technology, it's all political will.
