Accelerating Solar For Decelerating Climate Change In Time

Abstract

Any serious climate change model shows the extreme risks to life, food and habitat were we to continue on current ways of making electricity, heat and transportation by combusting fossil fuels. The question for humanity is if the energy from the sun can become a benign alternative in time. Solar energy is now 2.5% of electricity worldwide. How quickly can it grow to 70% for electricity and heating? We are entering a new regime where the trinity electric vehicles, solar energy and storage will spiral upwards. Can solar bend the Keeling curve down in time for CO2 to not become disastrous? How can all solar energy actors act in greater symphony to be in time?
