looking at the graphs of ice core data on the span of 400,000 years it sure seems like you cant stop climate change. Have to say i think the people who say that doing this or that will stop climate change are about as smart as the people who think climate change doesn't exist. in fact i guess they pretty much believe in the same thing, no climate change. And what would be the end game of crippling societies to try to prevent climate change to save a few thousand years? Is that really good for people or for profit? The only benefit might be to stump population growth since there isn't enough likely resources available to sustain us for a thousand years anyways with our current growth. But that could also be false because poverty doesn't always curb population.... I can only see short term profit as the primary goal especially with cap and trade and such type programs. Nothing wrong with being clean and efficient but at what cost and to whom. And how does it balance out. And don't forget you cant stop climate change, even if it was magically possible who knows what detrimental effects could possibly be had.
And once again i propose for those that believe humans have greatly altered the climate and continue to do so more then any other factor. Then humans and their growth are the problem. Not CO2. The industrial revolution was a necessity to get us to where we are. To get us our flatscreen tvs ipads and facebook. to create jobs and growth. make that jet car and most things obama used to get to copehagen to apologize about. And even if CO2 is curbed with the continued growth it seems like it would cancel any change out.
havent really seen too much promising solutions. i have none myself. just be nice if people look at it more objectively, and not at the amount of 0's in the grants or subsidies or the number of votes. lets just have the weatherman get better at forecasting before someone tries to stop climate change worldly.
