Reply #8: A couple of points

[pscot]

The climate summitry over the last year suggests that we aren't prepared to do much of anything to even slow the increase in carbon we're dumping into the atmosphere. I've seen estimates of atmospheric carbon levels as high as 800 or 900 ppb by the end of the century. In addition, we have likely passed the point where any possible action on our part is going to even slow, much less reverse, the processes we've set in motion. Therefore it doesn't matter what the public believes, or what Exxon or Koch spend on propaganda.
