Promoting diversity... Localization, not isolation.
What is the GPI where you live? The GDP measures economic growth. Cancer, oil spills , war all raise GDP. Why do governments support Globalization.?

What global solutions do you see being the best and easiest to implement?
localizing food production and distribution. it's how people live before globalization \ when they become poor. switching energy over to clean. end all old growth deforestation and allow only responsible logging. use hemp. let's start here. then switch chemical plastics over to clean. That's all critical by the way and doable; so we can save the world. While we are saving folks maybe we can start thinking globally and include everyone.

Require all packaging to be made with recyclable materials.

Cars, refrigerators, electronics, etc all should be made of recyclable materials. This is also already underway.

Electric planes, trains and automobiles. All of them already exist, btw. And ships.

Freightfarms.com This is the kind of thing I want to get into.

A single lamp could absorb roughly a ton of carbon from the air in just one year — the same amount as 150 or 200 trees.

If that's true, that's fucking amazing,
i do doubt that part. it's proly closer to one - 10 trees per light. algae can use alot of c02 and yield daily harvests so maybe but i can't confirm that. some of these articles take good science and present click bait so some claims can be exaggerated or misrepresented but i only fuck with real stuff.

And I don't find the thought of eating algae terribly appetizing.

Growing food indoors provides so many more benefits that I seriously don't understand why people would grow anything else? Decorative plants have their place as well- but many edibles are pretty, just one example is bonsai'd miniature orange trees.

algee is used as antidepressant, biofuel, here to make light. it doesn't take the space of plants. algee makes good ferts for plants. i'm convincing myself now.
you do bonsai?
