The Many Shapes of the Carbon Pulse | Frankly #44
Summary
<p dir="ltr">In this Frankly, Nate describes the Carbon Pulse - a one time massive consumption of fossil hydrocarbons at a pace millions of times faster than they were created. He outlines the many shapes that this pulse could take, as well as some shapes it will never take. Compared to previous carbon pulses that led to mass and minor extinctions, how does the modern pulse compare? What can what we know about ecology and human behavior tell us about the most likely paths into descent? Can thinking about these graphs on such grand geologic time scales help guide us away from the Precipice and towards a more Sapient Future? </p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">For Show Notes and More: https://www.thegreatsimplification.com/frankly-original/44-the-many-shapes-of-the-carbon-pulse</p> <p dir="ltr"> </p> <p dir="ltr">To Watch on Youtube: https://youtu.be/BjG7a58Y0Ig</p>
