How do we break out of our echo chambers and have a constructive dialogue with people who fundamentally disagree with us about climate and energy policy?
Great article Steve, very important perspective. I believe this is the correct approach also, unfortunately for me, I find it exhausting.
I started out with a very delicate approach, similar to what you have described, but after a while it seemed those that were open, flexible thinkers would come on the journey but many were so ideologically radicalised that they would get argumentative no matter how much I patted them on the head. It wasn't worth my mental health in the end. I'm still working on my patience in this regard.
Thanks. I understand but I have this feeling that the tide is turning. Net Zero cannot succeed because of basic engineering and economics. We could just wait until we are hit with blackouts etc but Iād like to think that the more people who catch on sooner, the better.

Yes I definitely think the tide is changing š«°š
Off to a great start! Looking forward to your next!
Some great geoengineering research here: www.chemtrailfacts.com
Thank you. I feel this was the easy one!
