    You are very upset with the NASA findings. I figured that would happen.

    I have no interest in your habits but I do know that the combined behavior of mankind is damaging to Earth. There are things I do that exacerbate what's going on but I try to minimize my footprint. However, if we have 7 or 9 or 12 or 15 billion people on Earth, all with average footprints, we have a major problem! So what should we do? Kill all new-borns over 8 billion population? Demand every human reduce their footprint by 50%? How about if government can help encourage technology that more people can use that allows them to have everything they need yet benefits Earth? Like wind power, solar power, hydroelectric power, geothermal power, nuclear power, electric powered cars, trucks, buses, trains, boats, etc.? Doing nothing is not a solution...

    Funny how you ignored natures solution. More plant life. Actually warming earth produces more. Isn't nature wonderful?

    If I use less, I will be camped out living in a tent.

    Interpretation is different from actual findings and even your own article did not back your assertions

    Neither have you read what I have posted

    About 1/5 of climate change is due to deforestation

    So, tell me again how the plant life is going to save the earth??

    You keep making unsupported comments. Why do you do that?

    You seem to only focus on you?? This is an all-or-nothing issue! Either we all succeed together or we will fail together. The crap we've done to Earth happened over the last 125 years and all humans participated, and any remedy or mitigation will require all humans to participate today and for the next several decades. We can certainly do better as stewards of Earth. The only question is WHEN do a majority of humans and world's nations do something better?

    There is no 'nature's solution' that can stop what humans are doing to Earth...

    I was really worried about a methane release then I realized that the oceans will get deeper and the pressure will go up

    Clathrate is cool . How's that remain solid at STP?

    Oh yeah. I know

    I took a semester of atmospheric pollution in college in the 80s with the discussion about the change from R22 now we have r410a and it is sold on Amazon anybody can buy it and use it and it won't hurt the environment

    Al Gore was not popular for forcing the change

    R22 did all kinds of things in the atmosphere. If I recall correctly ozone depletion was the major concern and there was definitely the depletion of the ozone layer over the poles

    Trump is not preventing the Indians and Chinese from complying with your orders.

    Smart Money would get Xi Jinping to pay us carbon tax credits for farming and absorbing the lethal fecal gaseuous substance

    Calthrate is in my memory banks.. I have seen it before I think

    I am grateful to Republicans for ending Cannabis prohibition in 2018

    No one will have to move. You suffer greater temperature changes from Winter to Summer and back. The real killer will be the next glacial cycle.

    yes..mother nature freezes excess carbon dioxide emissions?? something about ocean currents change?

    The ocean eats more heat than the air.. I remember something about a saturation temperature

    the permafrost methane release seems to be worrisome.. makes sense to me

    You have seen ignition of methane bubbles on frozen ice?? No??

    Farts cause global warming.. It became a law in California to catch cow farts a few years back.. I believe in climate change and trending warmer fast right now in geological time frames.. But catching cow farts seemed overboard to me.

    I took a few moments away to check out the fluorocarbons and learned it is China that belches out an enormous amount when installing foam insulation. China is who the Australian woman needs to appeal to. She needs to learn to speak Chinese.
