The earth is doomed

Another case of kicking the can down the road, eventually the excess CO2 will have to be removed by our descendants.
Oh well. Hopefully they don't resent us too much.
One thing people don't get about headline figures for the cost of tackling climate change;
the money isn't pissed up the wall, it goes towards jobs, research, materials, and contributes to economic activity.

Example: A government grant funds the research into a new type of solar panel
A multitude of researchers are funded for a couple of years (jobs)
Local manufacturing firms receive orders for prototypes (jobs)
Materials are mined (jobs)
Patents then exploit the green technology

and all through that process is tax at every level. The government recoups the investment!

Same goes for space programmes.

It will? Photosynthesis is the single greatest regulator of atmospheric CO2. Not atmospheric inputs. The green biomass has been increasing the last several years.

Anthropogenic Climate change is a grossly oversimplified model that looks at a complex system that ONLY factors in one input and ignores the single greatest carbon sequestration system on the planet
 
If you’re concerned about CO2 inputs complain about coal power generation on WeChat.
China has plans to open 85 new coal plants in 2026

Photosynthesis is already included in climate science, while natural carbon sinks absorb a lot of CO2, they haven’t kept atmospheric CO2 from rising. Climate models include carbon sequestration. Human emissions are outpacing what natural carbon sinks can absorb.

As for the Chinese, I absolutely think it's wrong they're still building coal power stations.

Again how are they outpacing carbon sinks. In any bio-system responses to environmental changes are not instantaneous.

These models were created and we were told to trust them. And in response to those models were we’re told to expect all manner of climate crisis “with dates”.

Yet they have failed to materialize. Just as the environmental crises that were supposed to have occurred going all the way back to the 70’s where we were told to expect massive starvation and assorted other calamities.

1st I’m not saying we should not always look to improve our steward ship of the planet.
What I am saying for the past forty years climate and environmental disasters have been prognosticated repeatedly, and yet….

You’re free to believe as you wish but if climate change fear porn is going to be thrown out there. I have no issue blowing holes in it.
But trust the science, I do there are a lot of scientists who continue to question anthropogenic climate change due to CO2.
