- Electricity/transportation
- reduce transportation emissions from 8 gigatons to 2 gigatons by 2050, a toll order as we have no idea how all this electricity for EV (electric vehicles) will be produced and where and how millions of cars will be charged in transit on America's roads
- Prices and performance of EV will be on par with combustion engine cars ($35K in the U.S.)
- New buses and medium and heavy trucks must be electric with zero-emissions by 2030; this begs the question; how electricity will be produced for such a fleet and how would highly polluting lithium batteries fit in as they cannot be recycled and must be buried
- Planes must use low-carbon fuel by 2025 and be carbon-neutral by 2040; what exactly is "carbon neutral?" The climate crisis promoters define it as "making no net release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, especially through offsetting emissions by planting trees"
- Ships must be "zero-ready" by 2030; what exactly is "zero-ready?" It depends on who defines it and for what purpose
- Decarbonize the grid
- Reduce "24 gigatons of global electricity and heating emissions to 3 gigatons by 2050)
- Solar and wind replacing fossil fuel electricity production
- Electricity storage
- No new coal and gas plants after 2021; retire existing coal plants by 2025 and gas ones by 2035 (homes are going to be a lot colder in winter and a lot hotter in summer)
- Methane emissions to be eliminated from coal, oil, and gas sites by 2025
- Cut gas and oil for heating and cooking in half by 2040 (cold homes in winter and cold meals)
- Build a clean economy with a clean consumption GDP by reducing fossil fuels
- Fix Food
- Farm soils must have an increased carbon content of 3%
- Fertilizers based on nitrogen must be drastically cut (yields will decrease)
- Promote lower emissions proteins, cutting beef and dairy 50% by 2050
- Reduce methane and nitrous oxide from rice farming by half by 2050
- Lower the food waste
- Protect nature
- End logging in primary forests and achieve net-zero deforestation
- Eliminate deep-sea bottom trawling
- Expand protected lands to 50% by 2050
- Clean up industry
- Reduce "total carbon intensity" of steel production by 90% by 2040
- Reduce "total carbon intensity" of cement production by 90% by 2040
- Reduce emissions from other industries such as plastics, chemicals, paper, aluminum, glass, apparel by 80% by 2050
- Remove carbon
- Nature-based removal
- Engineered removal
- Win politics and policy
- End subsidies, direct and indirect, to fossil fuel companies and for harmful agricultural practices (subsidize solar and wind companies which otherwise would not be able to compete with fossil fuels; and how are globalists able to determine "harmful agricultural practices" as they have never tilled the soil or stepped on a farm; farmers know how to protect their agricultural land that produces our food and keep it fertile)
- Charge soaring prices on carbon at a minimum of $55 per ton of greenhouse gases
- "Prohibit HFCs as refrigerants and ban sole use plastics for all non-medical purposes"
- Double government R&D and increase it five times in the U.S.
- Eliminate fossil fuel use in all industries by 2050
- Prohibit sales of non-electric equipment by 2050 in all industries
- Transportation must be made carbon-neutral by 2040 at all levels (cars, buses, trucks, freight ships, semi-trucks, and flights)
- Power – cut electricity emissions 100% by 2040
- All goods must be labeled with their respective carbon-emission footprints
- "Control flaring, prohibit venting, and mandate prompt capping of methane leaks"
An Action Plan for Solving our Climate Crisis Now | Speed & Scale (speedandscale.com) And if you are not convinced that this "climate crisis" plan is going to be put into action in your lifetime, whether you agree to it or not, take note of the billionaire titans mentioned in Doerr's book, Mary Barra, Jeff Bezos, Bill Gates, and Al Gore. You will pay for this "climate crisis" plan dearly and be happy about it.
- Turn movements into action
- Make "climate crisis" top issue with voters
- All government officials, elected and appointed, must support the "net zero" agenda
- All Fortune 500 companies must reach net zero by 2040
- Emission reports must be published yearly by all
- Companies must achieve net zero in electricity, vehicles, and buildings by 2030
- Education Equity – the world must achieve universal primary and secondary education by 2040 (would that be global Marxist indoctrination?)
- Health Equity – "Eliminate the gaps among racial and socio-economic groups in greenhouse gas-related mortality rates by 2040" (Who knew that such mortality rates existed and how do they know exactly that deaths occurred due to greenhouse gases?)
- Economic Equity – this forced transition will create "65 million new jobs, equitably distributed and outpacing the loss of fossil fuel jobs" (This sounds like the green jobs that were never created under the Obama administration; and amazingly, using Common Core math, they will be equitably distributed.)
- Innovate
- Produce a lot of batteries (Where is the lithium coming from and how will such toxic batteries be disposed of?)
- Green hydrogen
- Carbon dioxide removal (How will plants live?)
- Cost of synthetic fuels ($2.50 for jet fuel and $3.50 for gasoline by 2035)
- Invest
- Philanthropic investment ($30 billion per year)
- Project financing ($1 trillion per year)
- Venture capital ($50 billion per year)
- Government R&D (public sector funding of $40 billion per year)
- Financial incentives (global government subsidies for clean energy of $600 billion)
