Who?s going to pay for the atmospheric CO2 injection when crop yields fall? Has anyone looked at paleo climate change when temperatures and CO2 levels moved in opposite directions? Do y?all really expect China and the Third World countries to reduce emissions? Have you read the Paris Accord? Ask the Germans about their attempt at renewable energy. Thus concludes my rant. Crawling back under my rock. Have a great weekend.
