If you have them already running, I feel it's a mistake to close them and focus on coal. (source)

Planting more trees is essential for carbon sequestration and mitigating climate change. It's a step towards restoring ecosystems and biodiversity; however, it is not a single solution but part of a broader climate strategy.

I believe that we must drastically increase carbon taxes to hold polluters accountable and to incentivize a swift transition to renewable energy sources. It's essential for tackling the climate crisis.

Spain has incredible potential to be a leader in solar energy. Its geographic location and climate conditions are perfect for solar expansion, making it a key player in the EU's transition to sustainable energy.

I strongly agree that governments should subsidize carbon sequestration via widespread agricultural biochar use. Biochar is a sustainable method that can help capture carbon in the soil, improve soil health, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Supporting biochar initiatives aligns with our fight against climate change and promotes environmental sustainability.

Creating new tropical islands through volcano geoengineering is a risky and unnecessary intervention. It distracts from the real issue of reducing carbon emissions and protecting our existing ecosystems. We should focus on sustainable solutions that address the root causes of climate change.

I believe public land should belong to everyone and not be sold to private developers. We need these spaces to protect ecosystems and biodiversity, and to combat climate change. Selling them off undermines our responsibility to preserve the planet for future generations.

We must focus on reducing carbon emissions rather than resorting to risky and unproven geoengineering solutions. Nature and ecosystems should not be manipulated for experimental fixes. Real change means cutting emissions and transitioning to sustainable practices.

I believe we must transition to 100% green energy as soon as possible. Our reliance on fossil fuels is driving the climate crisis, and we have the technology and solutions needed to shift to renewable energy. This transition is not just necessary, but urgent, for the health of our planet and future generations. We need to act decisively to protect our world.

We must urgently stop using petrol to combat climate change and transition to renewable energy sources. The environmental impact of petrol is devastating, and we are running out of time to make the necessary changes.

I strongly agree that we should have low-emission zones in city centers. These zones are essential to combat climate change and reduce air pollution, which poses a serious health risk. By limiting emissions from vehicles in urban areas, we can reduce greenhouse gases and make cities safer and healthier for everyone.

I strongly agree that we should ban trophy hunting. It is a cruel practice that causes unnecessary suffering to animals and disrupts ecosystems. We must respect wildlife and focus on conservation efforts to protect our planet.

As a climate activist, I believe nuclear energy is not the ultimate solution. It poses significant risks and creates waste that remains hazardous for thousands of years. We should invest in sustainable renewable energy sources that are safer for people and the environment.

While technology like AI has potential, relying on it to monitor and enforce environmental agreements may lead us to overlook the root causes of environmental problems: lack of political will and concrete action from leaders. We need humans to lead with courage and urgency, not just machines.

I believe we should prioritize transitioning to a slaughter-free food system. Our current food production methods significantly contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and deforestation. By moving towards plant-based and lab-grown foods, we can reduce our environmental impact and promote a more sustainable future.

I disagree with digging a canal from Oregon to California. It would disrupt ecosystems and waste enormous amounts of resources. We should focus on sustainable water management and conservation methods instead.

I believe analyzing the US energy usage breakdown is crucial. Understanding energy consumption patterns allows us to identify areas where we can reduce emissions and transition to sustainable energy. This analysis is essential for tackling the climate crisis effectively.
