I remember my father who was born in 1905 telling me as a kid about weather patterns he went through growing up. So many decades one way or another hot or cold. Seems to me the earth has been here for milenea and when it needs corrected it will take care of itself as it has since forming into a planet. All the billions of dollars we have spent trying to correct mother earth I believe is in vain. All the large cities what is their toll on earth and nature? | ||||||

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: Also believe that mother earth will take care of itself. Sounds like you'd be a fan of Natural Climate change. Have you heard of the trillion trees project? Here's a message from months ago Msg# 1198487 Report titled: Planting 1.2 trillion trees Could Cancel Out a Decade of CO2 Emissions, Scientists Find, Feb. 2019 Click Here Two prominent studies published in 2013 and 2016 have earlier pointed out how increasing CO2 levels have produced growing amounts of greening of the globe's forests School kids, of course, are aware how plants absorb CO2 and release oxygen, while growing their stems & branches as well as producing fruits, vegetables & lumber, etc. Besides sequestering (storing) quantities of CO2, studies have shown how plants and trees can thrive on lower amounts of water. Among these gains are significant increases in the crop yields needed to feed the globe's growing populations. Folks might wonder why there's not broad support among officials. Are the govt & media afraid of recognizing the 90% public polling supporting such plans? The efforts to add up to 1.2 trillion trees have received some “favorable words” but there’s been lack of follow thru on those pledges. In 2020 Trump pledged US support for the trillion trees initiative at the World Economic Forum in Switzerland. Click Here But the congress has, so far, been unsuccessful in passing related legislation, as proposed by GOP members, and certain scientists. Yet the World Economic Forum, three years later, is still promoting this project. Here’s their 2023 report Click Here Quotes: "Trees also sequester carbon. . . along with mangroves, peatlands, wetlands and other ecosystems, forests have the potential to sequester enough carbon to bring our emissions reductions one-third of the way to our interim 2030 targets . . . Sadly, wide scale degradation and loss of forests is hindering the ability for trees to do their part in carbon sequestration. |
