I suggest we start by rationing anything involved with the carbon footprint of Warmists for Warmists. No more meat, fossil fueled travel, smartphones, etc
We must fight climate change like it’s World War III – here are 4 potent weapons to deploy
In 1896 Swedish scientist Svante Arrhenius explored whether Earth’s temperatures were influenced by the presence of heat-absorbing gases in the atmosphere. He calculated that if carbon dioxide concentrations doubled, global temperatures would rise 5℃ – even more at the poles.
Just over a century later, the world is on track to fulfilling Arrhenius’ prediction. If we continue on the current trajectory, Earth will warm up to 4.8℃ above pre-industrial times by 2100.
First, it didn’t actually rise 5C, and it’s not going to. You realize that would be a 9F increase, which would require a 7.5F increase in the next 80 years, when we’ve only had 1.5F since 1850?
We are a group of experts in physics, geology, science education, coral reefs and climate system science. We believe the lack of progress by governments in reducing global emissions means bold solutions are now urgently needed.
We must fight climate change like it’s World War III – and battle on many fronts. Here we examine four of them.
World War III, folks!!!!!!
1. Plant a lot more trees (weird, because these same climate cultists are poo-pooing that now that Trump recommended it)
2. Turn carbon dioxide into rock (of course, they have zero ability to do that at this time)
3. Make Earth’s surface more reflective (actually, part of the problem is that so much has been paved over, has buildings on it, change, etc, known as land use and the Urban Heat Island effect, doesn’t allow the ground to soak up sunlight, leading to higher lower surface temps in those areas)
4. Reimagine transport (they can reimagine all they want, it doesn’t exist)
When are they giving up their own big carbon footprints?

doesn’t allow the ground to soak up sunlight, leading to higher lower surface temps in those areas…
Huh?
So if bare ground soaks up more sunlight, heating the ground, where does that heat go?
Actually, it doesn’t. It doesn’t hold the heat.
Deserts are very cold at night.
Less than 0.01% of the planet is classed as urban
3/5 is classed as underwater.
Which accounts for you.
