Epilogue – Summary of Solutions. 38 key actions are summarized below under 10 headings:
(1). Science not spin, zero tolerance for lying, and social humanism not neoliberalism.
(2). Exactly accounted Carbon Price and Carbon Tax, species and ecosystems are priceless, and unsustainable human behaviour must be modified.
(3). Resolute threat to punish climate criminals for speciescide, ecocide, inaction and intergenerational injustice through ignoring inescapable Carbon Debt.
(4). Cease CO2 and CH4 carbon pollution, gas leaks and is dirtier than coal GHG-wise, bioengineering, and stop toxic air pollution, with atmospheric CO2 draw-down to a safe and sustainable level of circa 300 ppm CO2 -
(5). 100% renewable energy ASAP with adequate energy storage and efficient DC and AC HV electrical transmission grids.
(6). Energy efficiency, transport efficiency, rail not road, locally grown food, vegetarian diet, building thermal efficiency, clean steel, and hydrogen economy.
(7). Re-afforestation, increased catastrophic forest fires, and mitigation of forest fire risk .
(8). Population control necessity and possible mechanisms (some controversial) for population de-growth.
(9). Economic de-growth, equity, a sustainable decent existence for everyone, and a non-violent Climate Revolution now.
(10). Biological sustainability, cessation of speciescide and ecocide, and punishment of the destroyers of the Biosphere.
