MIT has a pretty innovative proposal here:

This should get deployed asap.

It could be a solution to the heat problem, but then we would keep pumping
CO2 into the atmosphere, which would increase ocean acidification, which
would disrupt the ecosystem even more. Plankton in the ocean accounts for
roughly 1/2 of the oxygen we breathe. My point is: this is a hard problem.
The solution won't be simple.

Switching to nuclear energy could be an option. We can all learn from
France's experience. I agree that
We should stop pumping CO2 in the atmosphere. ICE cars should be
phased out more aggressively.
Governments should give tax breaks to companies with work from home policies ?

How do you apply a statement like that to the middle east? 20million people in Cairo / Giza; 110million (I think?) total in Egypt. Fuel is NZ$0.50c/litre; cars freaking everywhere running all day long. Average salaries are very low. How would they afford the transition away from fossil fuels? You could extend that same question to any developing economy.
We're never going to be able to make a useful dent in emissions until we address the developing world.

Snap. Does the context of your developing country match that of my example (Egypt?) I can’t see them doing anything at scale; they simply don’t have the money/political motivation.

Yes. We have similar issues in Mauritius. We are also a small country. We
have too many ICE cars on the road. However, we saw an increase in
hybrid/EV purchases in 2022 and the number is growing for 2023. I'm not a
Nissan fan, but the Nissan Leaf is the most affordable one.

Woosh, the issues there must be significant. 1.2million people! I expect you’d import all your fuel? How is electricity generated there?

Yes. We have similar issues in Mauritius. We are also a small country. We have too many ICE cars on the road. However, we saw an increase in hybrid/EV purchases in 2022 and the number is growing for 2023. I'm not a Nissan fan, but the Nissan Leaf is the most affordable one.

Switching to nuclear energy could be an option. We can all learn from France's experience. I agree that We should stop pumping CO2 in the atmosphere. ICE cars should be phased out more aggressively.
Governments should give tax breaks to companies with work from home policies ?

Plankton in the ocean accounts for roughly 1/2 of the oxygen we breathe. My point is: this is a hard problem. The solution won't be simple.

Yes, our fuel is imported.
Coal burning is how we produce energy. There is a plan to become net zero.
However, it's clear that it needs to happen sooner. I think that nuclear
power is an option.

Mauritius has a long history of massive import duties on ICE vehicles.
100% duty, plus 15% VAT. Plus the significant cost of shipping the
vehicle to the island far out in the Indian Ocean.
And still traffic is challenging. That tells you something about the
allure of the car.
However, because the way roads and traffic are, you really want a small
car, not a large one, in Mauritius.
(It is the only country I have been to where they have a divided
highway, but then they use one lane on the "wrong" side to add capacity
during rush hour. No traffic lights above the lane to indicate that.
Locals just know.)
When I visited the most recent time, in 2018, it cost me more to rent a
tiny car (without CDW insurance) for a week than to rent a large house
with garden for a week - and that house was not in a tourist hotspot at
all (Surinam, MU, if you want to know).
To wit, I don't think we can extrapolate experiences from Mauritius to
other developing countries.
>I'm not a

Yes, I can see that being a great vehicle for Mauritius. But the Leaf is
being discontinued, because Nissan is making a loss with every one they
sell. Unsustainable.

The question isn't whether or not this would work, or whether we would
continue to pollute afterwards. (Both good questions though).
The question is how we would make the decision to do this as a planet.
The innovation we need is not in the area of technology, but in decision
making. Back before the endless-September, I think many of thought the
Internet, through some kind of authentication overlay to Usenet, would enable
well informed direct democracy. Man we we were idealists.
