weslangdon Posted June 18, 2019 Report Share Posted June 18, 2019 The Govt has made binding CO2 commitments, and far from being harmless it is driving up the worlds temperatures acidifying our oceans and making the possibilities of releasing stored CO2 in Peat Bogs and Tundra very likely. When that happens the temperature runs away! If we were able to halt all CO2 emissions today then you are correct the planet could accommodate to elevated CO2 but given we are destroying rainforests the planet's ability to repair is impaired already. I don't see it working at all. The whole world planet is changing at an unprecedented rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you'd be lucky to get 500 quid for it and they're kind of comfy? Imagine what the 1.4 is like..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
