Green New Deal at UCSD

Check out this video about Joe Biden's plan that might meaningfully address the climate crisis:

Key takeaways include:

1. Temperatures didn't change by more than 1 degrees C for most of human history.
2. USA has important role to play in decarbonization.
3. Biden's plan, while ambitious with the goal of transitioning the USA to clean energy by 2050, lacks details on how it could be achieved.

UC San Diego needs an update in its thinking about the world. @UCSDnews
It is still planning *massive* expansion, huge new buildings over next 8 years.
But how is this compatible with the imperative to cut emissions by 50% to prevent a rise to 2 degrees?

It is very encouraging that a mainstream news org such as
@CNN can now carry the climate crisis as it's main headline story.
This is a long way from the decades of silence, distortion and 'fake balance' they practiced.
Now let's push more news media to tell the truth. https://t.co/9acSaDzxEO
