On the Gates climate memo There is a lot of things I agree with in Bill Gates’ new memo on climate change, but I think it fundamentally sets up a false dichotomy.

There are a lot of things I agree with in Bill Gates' new climate memo, but I think it sets up a false dichotomy between reducing emissions and helping the world's poorest. I've put together a piece with my thoughts over at TCB:

I appreciate the response. I think, though, that the average reader leaves thinking BECCS=Drax, which is not accurate. Also there are experts who have thought deeply about the (key) counterfactual + incentive questions in specific BiCRS context who would have been good to talk to. Anyway...

James this article is a little disappointing. Which of the big BECCS / bioCCS offtakes are "harvesting wood?" All that I can think of MSFT or Frontier buying are using residues as feedstock. This balance is not reflected in how you've presented the "objections" to BECCS.

Barry Benepe, Who Gave New York Its Greenmarkets, Dies at 96 He brought farm-grown produce to the city’s streets, creating the largest network of farmers’ markets in the country and helping to revive neighborhoods.

Today we mourn the loss of one of our founders, Barry Benepe, and we celebrate his legacy:

"In 1966, he helped organize a protest to close Central Park to automobile traffic on Sundays in the summer."

52 years later, the park went car-free every day, all year long.

There was likely an opportunity to get a somewhat more scientific assessment of the measurement situation.
