Worst-case scenarios belong in her nightmares, not the IEC's daily reports. On a calm day, being a director at the International Energy Consortium requires fixing CarbonCon translators for Brazilian delegates. A thankless job, but the world is still drowning in CO2-there's no choice but keep treading.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn a bad day, it's not just Brazilians acting up, but Americans walking out, and now the Governor of Southern California insisting on a clandestine meeting.

When the governor reveals an impossible technology that could save the planet, but it's in the hands of a madman, it's a catastrophe. And almost enough to distract her from everything falling apart.
