"we have all the technology we need" to address climate change is only true in a virtual alien environment of an energy modeler's creation

It is misleading to think that a) we actually do have all the tech we need and b) that it exists outside of our socio-political systems

my point is that this misleads some people to think that all we need to do is just political will this thing open because all the low-carbon solutions are just sitting there waiting

That's not the case and it's a disservice to simplify the challenge before us and...

It can lead down a wrong track.

Thinking we have all the tech presupposes that we know the pathway to net-zero. But, we don't! Precluding this pathway can lock us in to technology tracks that could be dead-ends or very high cost.

This report by @climatechoices is excellent, it shows how much tech uncertainty there is from here to net-zero. Dark is minimum potential light is full potential. Not all of these technologies work together some substitute for others etc. But we need to advance all.
