I learned that 70% of all carbon emissions are generated by 100 companies (its all coal, oil and gas companies).

That being net-zero carbon emissions is not enough, and having a goal of net-zero set out by 120 countries by 2050 is stupid because we have to be there much earlier.

That we cannot rely on technical salvation and that curbing the efforts reducing emissions today.

That understand climate change has been up to this point to been organized in a digestable manner so us technical folk can quickly adopt climate knowledge, and start applying technical solutions or applying pressure to where its best needed
