The Ledger
Every statement that passed quotation and attribution checks. Mix any filter with any other: certainty 1/5, debate potential 5/5, or both at once.
why aren't all 9 resolved? a statement only gets an assessment when the public record can support or contradict it. opinions and what-ifs never can, and 0 checkable ones are still open, waiting for their date. predictions held up or didn't; assertions are supported or contradicted. on every card: ▮▮▮▮▮ certainty · ▮▮▮▮▮ debate potential. speakers are clickable
Peterson: Blue tech will avoid high-voltage transmission permitting gridlock
“Why I think there's that the, why this won't be the high-voltage transmission of you know, corollary Is because we just need to be supportive of the, of this group of companies that are trying to solve you know, solve these impact issues.”
Peterson: Transoceanic shipping cannot currently be electrified due to energy density
“When we're talking about getting things, you know, across oceans, right, something from Shanghai to LA, then we need to talk about decarbonization a little bit differently, because doing that through electrification is just not possible right now. And based up…”
Peterson: First large US offshore wind projects will build within years
“Permitting is the biggest of them, but it looks like some of those for the first large projects are happening now, and so we expect to see some of the first projects getting built over the next couple of years”
Peterson: Fish carbon footprint is comparable to soy and nuts
“Protein from the ocean, whether it's conventional or unconventional, has a much lower carbon footprint than, you know, sort of traditional terrestrial-based sources of animal protein. So if you looked at fish, just sort of, if you looked at, if you just looked…”
Peterson: Verified carbon credit processes for ocean biomass sinking do not exist yet
“So those are still areas that we don't have all of the data that we would require in order to know those things in order to create you know, verified credits, and so that's why those haven't, those aren't you know, those processes aren't in place yet.”

Peterson: Seaweed and shellfish are the lowest-carbon marine foods
“And how do we think about the opportunities for even lower carbon alternatives like, ah, seaweed and shellfish, right? Which are the lowest carbon ways that you can produce. You know, food from the ocean.”
