Besides the fact that we want price signals like negative prices during solar hours to persist long enough to support solutions that will bring the peak down, not just not add to the peak - like batteries, and flexibility for existing loads.

Would you assume that assessments like this are using values from CMIP6, with policy adjusted but not climate inputs like sensitivity?

I think this guy was turned off by Palestine - seeing genocide on social media, and I think he'd have no clue that Trump met with Netanyahu or moved the embassy.

I would say, where might we be if the Democrats ran a president with the basic capacity to sell his policies to their recipients - instead of leaving the field wide open because he couldn't speak publicly

'The immigration thing AND PALESTINE were two of the biggest things that turned people off, at least to who I've spoken to on job sites.'

This piece feels like a troll - you feel like a sucker being drawn in to pointing out the idiocy of this logic. It's not even how credits work.

Thanks, yes. I'd assume a lot of inputs aren't normally distributed because the uncertainty is epistemic. But I don't know.

That sounds reasonable. I wonder if extreme input values more likely in one direction than the other for a lot of variables. Also the uncertainty of the uncertainty ranges.

It's quaint to accuse Wikipedia of being unreliable - it was unreliable mostly in principal, and remarkably accurate in practice. Those kind of scruples seem centuries out of date.

Thankyou! Say a model has 100 inputs, all with their own uncertainties. How do you choose values for the model runs? Do they have some with all uncertainties best case, ranging through all mid to all worst? Or do they mix and match the input assumptions randomly?

I don't like those green-branded LEAN signs. Our Labor candidate wore a bright green suit to a candidate's forum put on by the local environmental groups.

Yeah, I would like to know that too, but Im not sure exactly what it's based on. To be fair, they may be right - but it's no casual thing to give up on that target. The implications are unacceptable.

...despite the growing evidence that the AR6 budget for 1.5 was likely generous, and actually represents a higher temperature.

But there's a generation that's locked on to the idea of 'credible pathways,' that are based on many assumptions of BAU, as the only acceptable basis for advocacy - so that now it seems unserious to continue to aim for net zero by 2035 -

That framework was always guaranteed to expire - the lack of contingency in the 50% chance of 1.5 degree budget to account for uncertainty indicates from the outset how shaky that groud was.

I think it's the result of the framework we've been insisting on for so long - that there is a 1.5 pathway that's consistent with growth, and that promoting this is the basis for all serious negotiation with government and commerce.

Im seeing this happen across the board. Most recently my local not for profit concluding there's no viable pathway to net zero by 2035 locally (which is consistent with AR6 1.5 budget). Im thinking about it a lot.
