We often hear about doom and gloom in regards to the climate crisis. It's nice to sometimes see positive news - for me it keeps me motivated that we can accomplish positive effects when good people work together! On that note, this article goes over some cities that have reduced their greenhouse gas emissions by at least 10%. The cities contain 58 million people 
There's obviously a lot left to do but we can do it!
@Jacara the secondary effects that you're mentioning are eye opening. I wouldn't have even thought of something like topsoil erosion causing run on problems. thanks
Who would be the main buyers for hydrogen created this way? Is it a very liquid market at lower volume?
Renewable energy sources currently provide only a small percentage of our energy. A lot of the problem comes from the variability of wind and solar. Nuclear power is super expensive and faces regulatory issues.
Realistically, what does the path to decarbonization in as short a time frame as possible as possible?

@briparks distributed food production! love it
@teddy cool stuff. Is the idea that through better energy management with software/data, you'll be able to optimize the processes and reduce emissions?
agreed, start small is good advice I think. @patrickmaynard you've laid out a nice vision for the components but there might still be a barrier to getting people involved as it looks like a big hairy problem upon first glance. It would be really admirable if you could get anything off the ground. Proving the value of the concept is paramount to get any kind of support

I know it's big tech but google has Sidewalk Labs which strives to use data to minimize urban emissions and impact
