it's like turning an aircraft carrier and it's hard to extrapolate from the small shifts in trajectory to the big future results, but the progress is real
I see a lot of "well why aren't emissions dropping faster" and other such complaints, I think it's genuinely very difficult to accept that there's any good news on the climate front for a lot of people after so many years of bad news

it's always important to demand better, but part of the reason that the story of climate policy isn't sticking is partly because bad news feels more plausible and partly because the people most invested in this policy understand its limits. www.notus.org/biden-2024/v... hard to sell "mixed-positive"
