Although I cannot comment on this specifically for Rust, what I would confidently say is that one of the best methods for finding the “best” dependencies in any language is to read lots of code. Find the popular and/or most useful projects written in the language on GitHub and see which dependencies that project uses and how they are used. At least in my career this method has served me well. For a given problem domain I was able to quickly identify the best/most popular packages to use by reading the code that was heavily used by others. Obviously the more you do this the easier it becomes.

How do you define what an appropriate per capita CO2 budget is? Is it different for someone from China, India, and the US? What about the difference between individuals from rural agricultural communities vs a large city? If non-western countries have the 'right' to increase carbon emissions why don't poorer people in Western countries have the 'right' to increase their emissions?

What is the target level for developing economics? How does it make sense to mandate Western countries go to net-zero while all developing countries continue to dramatically increase per capita emissions?

Since it would be impossible to force China or India to meet the same standards the West self-imposes in this scenario, you are essentially asking Western individuals to pay a higher cost of living for NO net carbon reductions. This mandate will disproportionately affect poor people.

As a result I don't see how anyone expects radical carbon reduction policies to receive support from the Western world. I do not see how this is a rational course of action for an individual voter or for any developed economy.

The CIA has a history of spying on Congress[0], overthrowing democratic governments [1], among a long list of nefarious activities I would not consider proper "democratic hacking." [2]

How is obligating big tech to cooperate with Western intelligence agencies a positive move for democracies?
