The solution is in the careful manipulation of all technologies. Not government over regulation. For instance. Huge solar farms absorb sunlight to turn it into energy. Normally that sunlight is absorbed into surfaces and reflected back into the atmosphere. Once it is captured it will eventually be released as heat. All energy ends up as heat. The more efficient the solar farm is there is a chance solar farms are adding to global warming by capturing more heat than is reflected out. I don’t have the math on this, but the physics of the issue can’t be ignored.
In my opinion using oil as efficient as possible, hybrid systems help, and planting a lot of trees. Keep construction confined as much as possible to the current footprint that exists and reclaim were able. Use of high tech concretes that are less harmful. Instead of landfills turn trash into energy, gas production, fermentation, and burning. If the government wants to help provide support to start up businesses that make sense. Just a little help. If the idea works market forces will kick in.
Example. Styrofoam. The hated material. Curbside recycling doesn’t want it. What keeps your coffee hot, your soda cold, your carry out food safe for the ride home. Styrofoam is very recyclable. But it is dirty after use. No one recycles it. Darn shame. Foam cup companies have tried but it hasn’t worked out yet. I guess the foam cup lobby couldn’t get a billion dollar gift. Seems the government is against foam cups, straws, and plastic spoons.
Rant over for now. Get fired up.

“Wood gas”. which is something those with zero experience (other than google) with will tell us is Neanderthal, is actually the production of a valuable fuel from waste products and is not just from burning wood. It’s a good plan and I’ve seen it work. Just recently however but I’ve seen it work. I’m a bit to advanced in my thinking to journey into wood gas at the present time but I know who can show me how to produce it if it comes to that.
