Project Drawdown @projectdrawdown.bsky.social · 29/07/2026
Red meat production accounts for 30% of global food-related emissions but generates only 5% of dietary calories or 2% of the global protein supply. That's why Project Drawdown researcher @enviroem.bsky.social calls it the coal of the food system: bit.ly/4x2yGnz

"Paysage de Printemps" (Spring Landscape) by French Neo-Impressionist painter, Achille Laugé, 1910
Dense, shady woods border the left side of the path. Four prominent, vertical tree trunks line the right side of the canvas. A calm blue sea meets a low horizon line in the distance. A single, tiny yellow sailboat dots the water near the center. A vibrant, sun-drenched grassy slope dominates the center and right foreground. Deep, cool shadows stretch across the path from the dense trees on the left.  Golden light filters through the canopy, creating bright oval spots on the path.  The entire scene mimics a bright, overexposed summer afternoon.

Posted on LinkedIn by @globalecoguy.bsky.social: Actual versus projected buildout for solar power vs. carbon capture
Two-panel chart comparing actual performance versus modeled projections for two climate technologies, spanning 2010–2040.

Panel 1 — Carbon Capture Capacity (megatons)
Line chart. Y-axis: 0 to 4,000+ megatons. A single dark red line (actual carbon storage) runs nearly flat from 2010 to approximately 2025, remaining well below 500 megatons. Beginning around 2023–2025, a fan of teal/blue projection lines diverges sharply upward, with the highest trajectories reaching approximately 4,000–5,000 megatons by 2040 and the lowest remaining near 500 megatons. Actual performance is far below all but the most conservative projections.

Panel 2 — Solar Power (terawatt-hours)
Line chart. Y-axis: 0 to 2,000+ terawatt-hours. A single dark red line (actual solar electricity production) shows exponential growth from near zero in 2010, rising steeply to approximately 2,000 TWh by 2023–2024. A dense fan of teal/blue projection lines originates around 2023–2025 and extends to 2040, spanning a wide range from approximately 200 to 2,000 TWh. Actual solar production meets or exceeds the upper range of nearly all projections.

Implied contrast: Carbon capture has drastically underperformed projections. Solar power has dramatically outperformed them

I disagree with so much that’s in this. We don’t know if humans have the ability to remove additional carbon from the atmosphere, using either nature or technology. Now is the time for research but these are not current climate solutions. What is? Stopping the burning of fossil fuels.

What will happen to the 82 USFS experimental forests around the country? Many sites have decades-long experiments that are tracking how forests are changed by timber harvesting practices and climate change. As I say here, “you can't just pick up an experimental forest site and move it to SLC.”

Qianjiadong Reservoir in southern Hunan, China, produces a double harvest: solar energy and yellow carp. The solar farm produces up to 80 megawatts of power while the fish forage beneath the panels. With a massive scale-up of solar and wind at home and cheap exports of the technology, China is driving a worldwide surge of renewable energy—Science’s 2025 Breakthrough of the Year.
