Moving beyond CO2: Earth is taking matters into its own hands.
Moving beyond CO2: Earth is taking matters into its own hands. We are going to have to sequester CO2, not merely stop producing it.
From the article:
"Maximizing the chances of avoiding a “Hothouse Earth” requires not only reduction of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions but also enhancement and/or creation of new biological carbon stores, for example, through improved forest, agricultural and soil management; biodiversity conservation; and technologies that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and store it underground, the paper says. Critically, the study emphasizes that these measures must be underpinned by fundamental societal changes that are required to maintain a “Stabilized Earth” where temperatures are ~2°C warmer that the pre-industrial."
Earth systems, not Trump, or Putin or other enemies of the environment will determine whether we survive or perish. Earth will have the last word. Meanwhile, in the short time YOU have, what do YOU say and do?
