1,000,000,000s of tons of CO2/year: how much we need to remove by 2050

I worked at Khan Academy for two internships and then just under 2 years fulltime, and don't know anyone that has anything less than positive to say about Kamens (nobody called him Ben because there were no less than 5 Bens at Khan Academy when I left).

One of his most memorable habits to me was coming into a meeting room where his words obviously had a lot of sway, then sitting on the ground when we were short on chairs.

He was an inspiration to many, first as an engineer, and later as a manager, and I'm excited to see what he takes on next.

(Author here) I cheated: to prevent that steady state (since it's ugly), I have 3 dye injectors strategically placed, causing certain areas to get redder, greener, and bluer over time.

Without that, yes, it turns into a muddy grey.
