I’d love that! There’s some good stuff floating around about this, like this lecture (which I’ve yet to listen to by I know the speaker and it’s almost certainly amazing). In terms of calculating carbon costs, I found this a while back but haven’t been able to follow up yet.
But I think there’s loads to think about here — the idea of reducing work to reduce carbon emissions, the whole notion of ‘carbon offsets’, the ways we’ll have to change our lifestyles to accommodate the climate future (like you, I struggle with this; I can’t give up my car, which is not an efficient one at all), and so on. What might travel and work look like in a green future?
Anyway, a collaboration sounds great. I’m at nick.r.irving@gmail.com — ping me!
