If you buy into the notion that carbon dioxide, the food for plants that feed us and the animals we use for meat, is poison, then this notion from hysterical climate researchers in the United Kingdom might make sense.

But .. but .. I just read that cement SUCKS UP carbon dioxide. Can’t we get a refund for laying down a driveway??
The more kids they starve or abort, the fewer noses to breathe out carbon dioxide.
Eeeeeeck, they’re going to tax my Mr Coffee. EEEKKKKK.
Control the population so they can import more Muslims
A very brief excerpt from your own article? Way to pimp it!
So basically trees produce carbon dioxide and cement absorbs it. They paved paradise and put up a planet saving parking lot.

Has been going on steadily for a solid week.
Unbelievable !

Was just thinkin’ how much CO2 would be sucked up if warmests at Oxford were gifted some cement shoes about 100 miles off the coast of Dover.
My gosh...let’s put a tax on liberals proposing stupid taxes...if we did that the government would be profitable...
Taxes being to low causes global warming?
Yesterday I read that 47 underdeveloped countries were pledging to make their economies utilize 100% green energy in 30 to 40 years. I further read that they were concerned that with Trump elected, the Paris agreements wouldn’t be carried out. One was quoted as saying he had thought the 2.5 billion dollar check was as good as in the mail, but now he didn’t know anymore.
That, in a nutshell is what’s going on. Obama throws around bribe money to non-white dictators who keep it while saying how dedicated they are to the climate; then he uses their statements to promote his policy.

The simpler solution is eliminating subsidies for farming in the West to bring down food prices (and federal spending) and ending ethanol mandates that suck up grain but don’t do anything except subsidize farmers indirectly.
Then food prices come down, less food gets grown to get essentially wasted, more marginal land can go fallow, and third world farmers aren’t priced out of western markets or flooded out of the market by subsidized food bought from the West and dumped in the developing world.
For example, the average EU cow has more in subsidies in some nations than the money it costs to sustain a person on a dollar a day.
