For what it's worth, we did push towards more green initiatives. Just not hard enough.

Not having the gills behind my ears gene is precisely why I was confident a vasectomy was the right choice.

We aren’t having kids earlier. My brother and wife adopted. Idiocracy is clearly where we are headed, which is why we are doomed because we will eventually destroy ourselves.

So Elon Musk has offered a 100 million prize for anyone who can create an effective carbon capturing system/technology. I don't know if he set a standard for what it takes to win the prize. There are already many carbon capturing technologies available, but they aren't very scalable, nor are they very efficient, so I'm assuming he has higher expectations than the status quo.
Many people have been suggesting there is already a solution: plant trees. Quote:

Trees might not be the realistic answer, but they could be part of the solution. We definitely are capable of planting a lot of trees and have made strides to preserve our forests and replace what we take, but this isn't done everywhere: Quote:

could the US actually spare an area the size of california and alabama to re-plant those trees in a hospitable location?
i have my doubts. the concrete jungle's taken over. just look at farm land. farmers in my area are now constantly selling to builders for subdivisions. just in my lifetime, the 2 nearest farming communities are down to about a 1/4 of farmland that they were when i started driving in the early 2000's.

While planting trees to offset the carbon emissions from vehicles is a bit outlandish, even planting enough to take on 1/4-1/2 would still help.
