This is one of the cases where I’d just argue for nuclear energy. Too many industries and too high population density makes it very hard to use solar energy properly, they don’t have a lot of land either so land redistribution probably wouldn’t work as an alternative measure.

I mean, they might be against it for the wrong reasons, but it would be better if we tried to fix the climate without aerosol…

Very well articulated!

The reason for a lot of these subsidies is the dependence of other economies on oil. We need more open source solar and nuclear tech to make the planet resilient, then we can throw oil out of the window.
