- Response to experiencing climate change related events (CA fires, TX cold) depends on priors
- People already believing in climate change vote more in favor of environmental legislation, but those who don't do not
- Kind of crazy how much the conversation has shifted even in the last year, with Biden now almost a "climate hero"
- What about the climate tech bros like Elon Musk? (Or climate tech dads, in the case of Bill Gates...)
- We need them all at this point!
- We currently face many crises: climate, pandemic, economic, racial inequality
- Giving people good jobs building renewable energy infrastructure solved all of them at once!
- Very unlikely that we'll avoid breaching 1.5 degrees
- How are we going to cope with that? How will our infrastructure deal with it? How do we keep the world semi normal?
