This is one of those perspectives that feels wise but I quite disagree with. Consider Covid in Jan 2020. At that time, was it right to focus on (i) actual current realized harm, or (ii) hypotheticals based on projecting exponential functions? Clearly (ii).

Thank you for saying this. Climate change is somewhat similar in that the current harm is bad and rightly draws attention, but future harm will be catastrophic in comparison.

Curious for more of Vitalik's thoughts on climate change. Especially pieces of the solution like carbon removal from ambient air.

Climate scientists may "win" the prediction game but where are the levers to take action.
