Imperial College London research has found limits to how quickly we can scale up technology to store gigatonnes of carbon dioxide under Earth's surface. Current international scenarios for limiting global warming to less than 1.5 degrees by the end of the century rely on technologies that remove carbon dioxide (CO2) from Earth's atmosphere faster than humans release it. This means removing CO2 at a rate of 1–30 gigatonnes per year by 2050.
However, estimates for the speed at which these technologies can be deployed have been highly speculative. Now, findings from a new study led by Imperial College London researchers show that existing projections are unlikely to be feasible at the current rate of growth.

I posted this because we had severe thunderstorms yesterday. Two people on my team at work both said, see see yesterday its climate change! I said, please tell me how we can control weather? No answer.

If they could, they would deplete the atmosphere of all CO2, which would end life on earth.

I’ve just been reading about the inundation of Sundaland when sea levels rise 450 feet about 11,000 years ago.
The “climate” is changing all the time. No biggie.

Worrying about CO2 is not going to solve their muslim problem.

Total volume of CO2 in the atmosphere is only .03%.
Man made contributions to that are 3.225% of that .03%.

Well at least we can release it again when the ice age they create hits us and maybe keep it warmer longer.

I have zero respect or trust in any “professional politician” from either party...That’s why I respect and trust Trump myself...He is not a “professional politician”
If the everyday people would just look at how things were done between 2016 and 2020, and THINK, we would not be where we are today...

The temps were much higher and there was much more Co2 during the last interglacial warm period 125,000 years ago than now... Substantially higher...
