we've got to find a way to have this managed and controlled by a huge dreadfully inefficient and expensive government bureaucracy, otherwise, it will never be useful for fighting global warming

instead of complaining, millennials plant 20 MILLION trees in last months of 2019. They did it.

It is so encouraging to see true believers in action instead of whining/complaining then getting in their gas guzzling trucks and driving to their 3000 sq ft homes with the heat and A/C blasting in season.

I mean, Corals and Coral reef fish are already completely fucked. Good chance we’ve lost hundreds of species of coral obligate invertebrates already. That’s just one marine ecosystem.

Do the studies they publish always equivocate so much? "could," "suggests." It's like reading an episode of Ancient Aliens.

That is good practice when making big predictions several decades into the future about complicated systems subject to significant uncertainties and stochasticities. Have you ever read a primary scientific publication before?

Don’t worry, awaken. I’m sure some conservative publication will spin it as “Liberal Scientists Claim World Will End Next Week.”
