Subject: Re: EV and 2024
You are right about the tech. But also smaller changes would have been needed previously.

I'm not sure that's right, either. You need basically the same "size" of changes - you just would have had more years to spread them over. So even though the overall shift is the same "size" (eliminate all ICE vehicles, eliminate all fossil fuel electricity generation, etc.), you have a smaller per-year shift.

Make no mistake - the policies that voters are pushing back on now aren't anywhere big enough to meaningfully solve the climate change problem, either. Voters in the OECD are simply unwilling to pay the costs necessary to keep climate change low.
