Whatever you may think of global warming, there is no doubt that the bulk of the solutions proposed for limiting emissions vary from marginally useful to a complete waste of time, if not counterproductive. Its nice that Max Rheese recognises this.
Only die-hards such as Sarian, and others who have simply never bothered to look at these issues, refuse to admit this basic point.
Emissions are simply not going to be reduced under existing policies - even the rate of increase is not going to be affected. The only option is to go in the other direction and start providing energy to all, and help allieviate poverty.
