If they actually wanted to stop pollution why don’t they nuke china?
[Direct Air Capture (DAC)]
Ya know, ya think they can’t possibly get any more stupid than they already have.
And then they prove you incorrect.
You are correct. The other thing they do not talk about is the ocean which is the largest carbon sink on the planet. As the oceans warm it releases carbon dioxide. We are in a warming period due in all probability to the orbital mechanics of the earth and changes in the inclination of the earth. Man has nothing to do with either of these. The Vostok Ice Cores from the Antarctic prove this. The ice traps CO2. They found that CO2 levels in the ice occurred after a warming period and not before.
The Vostok Ice Cores go back 800,000 years. Long before the internal combustion engine and the use of fossil fuels.
Fallen Angels in our future.
This is an outright war on plants by depriving them of CO2. Plants are people too.
Disastrous climate change is a dawning truth? No, it isn't.
It's the opinion of some, not a truth.
A world full of human beings is going to have carbon emissions. Full stop!
Unless you start eliminating human beings, which is abhorrent, you can't change the math.
Concentrate on living with a warmer Earth.
A little secret that apparently is not being factored in - Plants themselves consume oxygen and emit carbon dioxide ALL THE TIME, to support their own life functions. The trick is, that in daylight hours, the effects of sunlight permit the plant to emit MUCH more oxygen and store the carbon as carbohydrates, than it is consuming the oxygen and the stored carbohydrates again and releasing CO2. In darkness the plant goes entirely to oxygen consumption mode.
Consider mushrooms, which perform little or no photosynthesis. And yet they grow in darkness.
Organic matter, in the process of bacterial decomposition, also generates much if not most of the natural background levels of CO2.
Yes; and the “experts” are messing with masses much bigger than their imaginations that dictate life.
So we GO BROKE trying to pull China’s CO2 out of the air.
Sounds like a plan to me!!!

Oh, where are the alarmists on the turd world?
About 3.2% of all CO2 in the atmosphere is man-made. (DOE 2000)
Excellent post!
When they remove carbon, plants die. When enough plants die, we die.
Carbon capture by organics (think forests) is a joke and a scientific travesty of thought. When the tree dies it decomposes via bacterial action and termites. CO2 is released and also methane. The methane rises into the atmosphere and decomposes due to reactions with ozone. It becomes CO2 and H20. Unless an organic is buried and removed from decomposition it does not remove CO2 from the atmosphere on a permanent basis.
We are sequestrating carbon into the ground all the time.
Anything of organic origin is mostly carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Your trash is mostly organic (cardboard, food scraps, plastic). And then it goes into a landfill.
Con artists are everywhere ,the left is full of them
TREES capture and convert CO2! I learned that in school! What a bunch of idiots!
A totally ridiculous and stupid scheme. But not quite as bad as the idiot idea of setting up solar panels in orbit around Earth which would generate electricity to power microwave transmitters which would “beam” radio waves to Earth which would convert them back into electricity.
“TREES capture and convert CO2! I learned that in school! What a bunch of idiots!”
Correct
