    1. he agreements aren’t perfect. For example, they may not rule out oil and gas as bridging fuels between coal and renewables
      • for: bridging fuels, energy transitions
      • comment
        • fossil fuel bridging fuels can be very problematic
          • the carbon budget is shrinking fast
          • instead of rich nations and peoples transferring the remaining carbon budget to those in need of development, it is simply being wasted on high carbon lifestyles of the rich and famous and to a lesser degree, the middle class
          • we are making a tradeoff between high carbon lifestyle choices and transferring that carbon to those in developmental need
          • this is where the "bridging fossil fuels" come into play, to compensate for the high carbon life style
          • If the transfer from the elites to the energy disenfranchised actually happened, perhaps we would not even need those bridging fossil fuels!

    1. thought to be a potential approach to create a better consensus in a world where multiple truths sometimes seem to co-exist. Today, each side argues only their “truth” is true, and the other is a lie, which has made it difficult to find agreement. The bridging algorithm looks for areas where both sides agree. Ideally, platforms would then reward behavior that “bridges divides” rather than reward posts that create further division.
