World Now Likely to Hit Watershed 1.5 °C Rise in Next 5 Years
Here are some (generally U.S. centric) suggestions to move away from fossil fuels as fast as possible for a reasonable cost with current technology and with the least economic disruption:Expand EV tax credits and allow EV conversions to qualify, not just new vehicles.Electrify the interstate highway system so that EVs can charge while they're moving.  This reduces the necessity of hauling around massive and expensive battery packs.  Provide the electricity for free for small passenger vehicles that meet a minimum efficiency standard.Build more battery factories.  Especially for lithium iron phosphate cells (or any technology that replaces it), since LFP doesn't depend on cobalt or nickel and is much safer than most other lithium ion chemistries.Install more domestic wind and solar power generation.Invest in transcontinental power transmission lines and solar capacity in place like Africa, so we can power North America at night without relying on batteries.Shut down fossil fuel power plants, but keep some of them operational as emergency backup.Make an EV charge port required building code for new houses and apartments with parking.
