Fill in the Blanks climate change 2Online version climate change by evren teacher 1 on time reduce technology carbon the fuel change fossil But nuclear innovation increase efficiency more We can leave power plants online longer . We can price carbon emissions harshly , and the price each year to create strong incentives for the world's industries to transition . We can enforce strict standards for energy , and for any type of new construction . We can phase out fuel vehicles . Next , we also need to invent new and better . Without new technologies and , it will be impossible to achieve a zero CO ? emission world , be it from technologies like carbon capture , or a new generation of nuclear power plants , to new batteries that revolutionise the energy storage from renewables . But innovation takes : years , and decades . . . . . . and we don't have this time . Every year , we keep adding more to the atmosphere . This means we can't keep relying innovation alone . We need to find ways to emissions today , while we invent what we will need in the future . The less fossil we burn over the next few years , the more time we give innovation to catch up . The more low - carbon energy infrastructure we build today , the we can compensate for economic growth , and the people born today . The more coal power plants in construction we stop from being finished , more CO ? we save . Neither innovation , nor the alternatives we're using today alone can solve rapid climate . , innovation , together with a decisive move away from fossil fuels where it's possible today could do it .
