We already know what we need to do but people don’t want to do it.
That’s the thing that gets me about AI solving global warming or whatever. You think a computer telling you that you have to get off oil is going to make a difference?

Soon it’snot going to be we don’t want to do that it’s we are going to have to.
Also if you look at happiness. We do want that some people don’t know that, some don’t know it’s possible and some people have been outright lied to.

Unless you can take a dead tree and prevent it from decaying, you’re just moving around carbon and not actually sequestering it. We would basically need to grow billions or plants and turn them into coal/oil and then just leave those fuels sitting around. Good luck with that.
