Comment There is nothing WE can do. (Score 1) 89

The US is 11% of global emissions. Emissions peaked in the US in 2007, and have been declining since as we switch to renewables. The reality is that we need nuclear to make a complete switch to renewables and shut down coal and gas. Small Modular Reactors are not cost effective. Regulatory changes are needed to make nulcear cost effective. Transportation emissions in the US are neutral and have been for 20 years. Hybrid, electric, and telecommuting have had a huge impact. Improvements in furnace, tankless water heater, and air conditioning technology have reduced building emissions significantly. None of this matters because China is 33% of the world's emissions, India is 8% of the world's emissions, and that is not changing any time soon. Despite cuts in the US and Europe in CO2 emissions overall greenhouse gases continue to increase.
