We’ve got to leave most of the carbon we know about in the ground,” Mr. McKibben said. “We’ve learned in the last three to four years that we’ve got to win pretty much every one of these fights and we’ve got to win them in a lot of countries.”

I trust even the greenest greens here realize the absolute impossibility of what that man is asking - absolute impossibility. Anyone who believes we are going to leave most of the carbon in the ground is absolutely absolutely absolutely delusional. A while back I spoke about the time constant of systems - tau - and how long it takes to change the course of a large system.

If what he says is true - any money spent on that is an absolute waste - and if one actually worries about this crap they should be focusing on mitigation.
