Korean Study: Removing Carbon From the Atmosphere Won't Fix Climate Change

A study published by Korean scientists has thrown cold water on the idea that cutting the amount of carbon in the atmosphere will automatically lead to lower temperatures.

In the study, the Koreans simulated how removing large amounts of carbon would affect the progress of local climate changes related to global warming. Computer modeling looked at the hypothetical scenario in which “carbon dioxide concentrations continued to rise from present-day levels for 140 years, then were gradually reduced back to the initial levels over another 140-year period,” according to Space.com

The study results suggest that the local climate in these areas would not return to normal for more than 200 years after the carbon dioxide concentrations drop. The Mediterranean region, for example, plagued by ever more severe heatwaves, droughts and wildfires, would continue to suffer and could become even drier, the study found.

In the study, the researchers modeled the changes to the air circulation pattern called the Hadley Cell, which transports moisture from the equatorial regions toward the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn, which lie at about 23.5 degrees north and south of the equator, respectively. Scientists have known for years that the Hadley Cell circulation responds to climate change by expanding toward the poles. The humid air that rises from around the equator gets dumped back to Earth at higher and higher latitudes, causing worsening droughts in subtropical regions.

But...but...computer models are only supposed to show what the climate cultists have already decided! Didn’t these Korean guys get the word?

Removing Carbon makes you Inorganic.

Without carbon humans cease to exist. Furthermore, carbon is only 0.04% of the atmosphere be breathe. Without carbon there are no plants or food.

The Modern Warm Period doesn’t need fixing anyway.

And how would this carbon be so magically removed?

The planet is actually greener than it has been in a long time, thanks to higher CO2 levels. All these knobs want to save the environment but want to stop doing what grows nature.

Sahara desert was once an ocean. Africa and America were once joined. Earth has never been stable for 5,000,000,000 years. Start worrying only if climate stops changing.

Bingo! It was never about the truth, it was always about control. We are doomed as a nation with these bastards in control.

“... Removing Carbon From the Atmosphere Won’t Fix Climate Change...”

Why would it... there is no “climate change”.

Hard to fix a problem that doesn’t exist. But lets throw a few gazillion more at it.

Climate change is the small amount of money you have in your pocket after being ripped off.

There is no evidence that emissions cause warming.

And Greener means there’s more food for a population that continues to grow. It’s a self balancing system.

Removing “carbon” will kill off all terrestrial life on the planet.

Wouldn’t put it passed the climate change cult to say the only to prevent is is get rid of all the people.

No limit to crazy once it gets started.
