A #WritingTip: remember no story really exists before you start #writing it. Not even in your own head. You're not transcribing a preexisting, flawless #text. What you do #write may not "sound" like the images or notions you had in mind, but that's inevitable. That's #creating. Embrace it.

in English, using "but" negates the preceding statement. For example the sentence:
"CO2 is important but we have other levers to pull for climate action.."
...indicates that the writer is negating or dismissing the importance of CO2.
"and" works perfectly as a replacement in many cases, emphasising the inclusion of all the factors/ideas/concepts.
Use "but" for intentionally rescinding whatever you wrote just before it.
And if the words won't come, see if someone can help.
