MS NOW and, I assume, most of the rest of the media, talks a lot about gas prices and how this is turning even MAGAs against t Rump. But our descent into climate hell gets little attention and will only happen sooner with a reduction in prices. The things we care about aren't the things we should care about.

Krugman today:
Donald Trump wants to stop the renewable energy revolution. But he can’t — it will continue to advance around the world because the economics and the science are compelling. Trump can, however, ensure that the revolution passes us by. And the big geopolitical winner from Trump’s hostility to the energy revolution will be China, which dominates the production of renewable-energy infrastructure.

New cars are largely unaffordable for the middle class and below. CW says we need to find a way to make them cheaper through imports, etc. Better to make them less necessary. Also, driving them a lot less makes them last longer.

I learned about the greenhouse effect in 1970 in an economics course. Also James Hansen in 1988 in testimony to congress. Also 1824
The greenhouse effect was first identified by Joseph Fourier in 1824, who proposed that gases in the atmosphere could trap heat.

2026-03-06 22:54:09 UTC

Maybe I am being mean, but it has made sense for decades to minimize one's use of gas (hybrids) or not use gas at all (EVs, walking, biking, etc .) People never seem to see what is coming or what is here and then complain about the price of gas.
