Here's a chart from the EPA. says ag 10%, transport 29%.
Ag is very scary to me. another article from today on first ever drought declaration for the CO river.
How much unsustainable water use in the west is used for 'wrong' crops (or just should be none at all)? And how much from huge population growth in hot deserts just getting hotter? Meat?
And is it even possible in the near (20 years) future to for instance change air and sea transport (those giant tankers). Maybe could move to autonomous smaller ships that use sail / electric combo but batteries are heavier than oil per unit of power right? cool startup idea.
I'm so pessimistic lately feeling totally powerless and that even if we collectively get it together, we might not be able to pull it off in time.
I think it might come down to whether or not this all causes a new world wide catastrophic event to force change. Ideally realizing climate change is that event before it goes off the walls. But maybe some confrontation like wealth inequality or 'west' verse CCP (even cold to spur competition).
