You know ,I think we should start several large tunnels through the mountains around Los Angeles and install huge fans with charcoal filters so the dirty air from LA, Long Beach, Riverside etc. can be sucked out and cleaned bringing in fresh air to the basin. I know it will work because Mr Drysdale on the Clampets you know the rich hicks that found the oil while shooting possum they moved to the Beverly Hills you know the ones...Granny ,Jed, Elleymay and Al Gore Opps I mean Jethro lol sucker for punishment sorry...
Well what ya think? Jobs n stuff ya know Clean air every breath in LA, Riverside, Holyweed ever body would be slim and trim and we can do it too for the sea otters etc ya know...

This article reads like the script for some grade B, 1950’s science fiction movie.

I have several devices that suck C02 out of the atmosphere, they're self replicating and maintenance free for the most part. In addition they tend to lower my heating and cooling bills and look nice too. (trees)

I'd rather get plunged into a warming age than an ice age.

On Foreign Policy:

FOREIGN POLICY is published by the Slate Group, a division of Washingtonpost.Newsweek Interactive!!!
Joke is on WaPo/Newsweek!!
~~~~~

Foreign Policy used to be the official organ of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.

You get one guess as to what side of the political spectrum they reside on.

This guy has the thinking capacity of Bullwinkle J. Moose.

Looks a little like him, too.

This crap ranks right up there with the global cooling wackos in the 1970s wanting to spread crude oil across the arctic snow to trap heat.

I think the more serious proposals specified carbon black rather than crude.

It gives me the distinct impression we'd better leave things alone.

It is only fair. China and Russia race to save the green revolution as it is destroying capitalism. While they take as much carbon fuel as they can worldwide.

I'm certain that the Russians and Chinese will be delighted if the United States shackles itself with this foolishness.

But the truth is that the world will continue to run on hydrocarbons for a long, long time to come.
