F. Dyson said this? He is probably one of the smartest humans on the planet. Maybe some folks will listen.

I happen to be a rare believer, in general and in theory, with global warming, here on FR. That said, I am not a Global Warming (tm) alarmist. Dyson DOES believe in the dangers of CO2, but believes that the primary one isn't of warming, but of stratospeheric cooling, which hurts the ozone layer, which, when it opens holes over the ARCTIC, vs the Anarctic, where nobody lives anyways, is going to be a big problem. He also believes that by managing vegetation, we will be able, relatively simply, to manage CO2 levels.

That is why I posted these vids.
Sure there may be concerns, we do not know for sure yet, and if so, it is possible they can be managed without impacting our ways of life as drastically as many try to say. Computer models are just that, models. Not measurements. And predicing doom and gloom scenarios from those models is irresponsible.

Ozone is old goods, can’t be sold twice.

Soon, we’ll be in the post-gw age and we’ll need a new global threat like oxygen saturation or nitrogen depletion or bagels and cheese...
