Is there a limit to fossil-fuels addiction?

Question

I mean: we're a lot of people who've been reading and thinking about the unfortunate fact of fossil-fuels addiction in our modern societies and modern cultures. Many of us are ready to accept the notion that CO2 emissions must be reduced in the years to come. But is it possible for human societies to reach the decision of actually starting to reduce emissions, and not only wait for technological fixes to eventually come our way?

Answer 1

Of course. Didn´t the British government banish the use of coal domestically in the sixties.

Answer 2

This issue has now reached a tipping point.

We are now convinced that something must be done and we are now willing to invest in the technologies which will allow us to achieve an emissions equilibrium state.

Green is now in.
