Removing CO2 From the Air Only Hope for Fixing Climate Change, New Study Says

The only way to keep young people from inheriting a world reeling from catastrophic climate change is to reduce carbon dioxide emissions dramatically and immediately, according to a new paper. Not only that, but it's also necessary to aggressively remove greenhouse gas that's already accumulated.

"If rapid emission reductions are initiated soon, it is still possible that at least a large fraction of required CO2 extraction can be achieved via relatively natural agricultural and forestry practices with other benefits," the authors wrote.

"On the other hand, if large fossil fuel emissions are allowed to continue, the scale and cost of industrial CO2 extraction, occurring in conjunction with a deteriorating climate with growing economic effects, may become unmanageable. Simply put, the burden placed on young people and future generations may become too heavy to bear."

Yes, the global warming scare intensified right after the fall of the Soviet Union, (which saddened American liberals), and it became the new mechanism to instill control over the masses.

Not a bad idea!
Now you couple that with a dry ice machine and seal the cubes in plastic then have them put in the trash and hauled away by their local garbage company, problem solved!.......

REALLY, BAD, IDEA.

The CO2 levels in the northern and southern latitudes are already at alarmingly low levels for sustainable plant growth.

World CO2 levels aren’t evenly distributed. The highest levels are around the equator, which happens to coincide with the areas of highest plant density on the planet.

“Global warming” is a scam of epic proportions. The goal of the perpetrators is two fold: accumulate wealth through a “carbon tax” and “carbon credits”, and reduce the world population down to a much more controllable number.

Yeah, we go to ALL this work to achieve what we want and a simple volcano goes off and ruins the whole party. Bummer.

Removing CO2 from the air will only serve to make the planet habitable for the aliens, when they take over.

Beautifully succinct point.

Climatologists preserve the myth of global warming due to CO2 in order to continue to receive grants.

Tree huggers are just nuts who buy "electric" cars, which are actually rechargeable battery cars, which are charged by electricity generated by burning coal. So they are actually "coal" cars.

CO2 is .004% of the tropospheric gases. If one put .004% cyanide into a glass of water and drank it they would feel no ill effects.

As you said removing all of the CO2 would kill all plant life, then what would the cattle, swine and poultry eat?

Bottom line from their point of view is that the only thing wrong with the planet is Humanity, or Hermanity or personity or LGBTQAS (Lesbians, gays, bi-sexuals, transgenders, Queers, asexuals and straights.

Please tell me that this is either a hoax or a satire. But then, I’m sure that there are folks who actually believe this because of the ‘scientific consensus.”

CO2 is essential to life.

CO2 IS LIFE!

I am not a scientist, or even a person well-versed in Science. But, I have been watching this phenomenon for years now, wondering when it was going to fade away as actual science refutted everything it stood for. But, no, it just gets crazier.

At the beginning of this fad, I asked my hubby (in my home occasionally referred to as Mr. Spock) what would happen if we could remove all the CO2 from the atmosphere. He replied: "All the plants would die." I then asked what would happen after that. He replied: "We would die."

Simple, but cogent and understandable. How has such a scam survived? Well, a lack of scrutiny and the silencing of anyone who disagrees with this religion. How much money has been thrown down this rat hole?

Even cow farts are probably helpful for something. ;)

Maybe they can hook the cows up to machines that will add their burp and fart methane to the natural gas supply to burn. CO2 is far less potent than CH4, or so they say.

Dihydrogen Monoxide is bad juju.

Absolutely, it mixes with oxygen to rust things, thousands of people drown in it, many people are scalded by it and scarred for life or even die, it rots the convertible top of your electric car, bacteria grows in it, man eating sharks thrive in it, it floods the East Coast this weekend, it nearly killed Southern Louisiana last month (congress voted $500,000,000 to repair the damage it did}, man that stuff is really really bad.

The linked website, insideclimatenews.org, is where all the warmunists go to get their news.

Think of them as the New York Times for all things man-made global warming.

Killing 6.5 Billion men, women, and children is the solution to every leftist problem.

Global warming, hunger, famine, racism, bad economy, good economy, sustainable development, warts, or fungus.

The root solution is always to eliminate 6.5 Billion people from the planet.

After a while, you just have to recognize leftists as the genocidal maniacs they are.

You just repeated the plot for "The Kingsmen", a movie I found quite entertaining. lol

I saw an artist’s rendition of a high tech, high dollar machine that would draw in air laden with CO2 and release oxygen to the atmosphere. It looked similar to a giant tennis racket.
Someone, who is obviously NOT WITH THE “PROGRAM” suggested...”Why not just plant a tree instead!”
