In the book Drawdown, the top 10 best ways to combat climate change are:
1. Better refrigerant management, b/c refrigerants release significant potent GHG
2. Wind turbines to offset oil/gas
3. Reduced food waste
4. Plant-rich diet
5. Better tropical forest health
6. Better education for girls
7. Better family planning options
8. Solar Farms
9. Silopasture (forested and mixed agriculture plots)
10. Rooftop Solar
The list of top 50 continues cycling at about that frequency through unexpected engineering problems (e.g., 1), social issues (e.t. 3,6), and traditional O&G replacements (e.g., 10).
Saying this or that is the solution is just dumb. Saying it's "key" doesn't necessarily mean it's "the only keystone", I'd hope.
