Apart from some details it remains accurate. CO2 and other <a href="https://mas.to/tags/GreenhouseGasses" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GreenhouseGasses</span></a> are still emitted on a large scale because <a href="https://mas.to/tags/FossilFuels" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FossilFuels</span></a> remain in widespread use.<br>Sagan mentions both <a href="https://mas.to/tags/renewables" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>renewables</span></a> and <a href="https://mas.to/tags/fission" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fission</span></a> based <a href="https://mas.to/tags/NuclearPower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearPower</span></a> as ways to reduce emissions and delay/stop climate change.
