Educate me on climate change.

How much of the current change of climate can be attributed to man?
Are CO2 emissions actually responsible for a large amount of CO2 concentration in earth's atmosphere?

>How much of the current change of climate can be attributed to man?
Basically all of it. Natural cycles would have us cooling a little bit.

>Are CO2 emissions actually responsible for a large amount of CO2 concentration in earth's atmosphere?
Yep. The isotopes of carbon in atmospheric CO2 have been analyzed and the results point to fossil fuels as the source.

So far no studies have taken socioeconomic factors into account so we just can't say.

Yeah, not much of it gets here from outer space.

Approximately all of it.

Yes.

Doesn't work. Biomass only stores carbon, once it dies it decays and releases it all. You might be able to to sequester a few gigtons this way, but that's like a single year of emissions and it would have repercussions on the environment.

>> No.10962007

My point is that it wasn't enough sequestration to matter, but if you want to nitpick then your information is out of date and we've probably added another ten gigatons per year by now.

>> No.10962126

>>10962119
Right, so now, two years later, 39 gigatons/year is not an unreasonable expectation, but my point with that was that splitting hairs is unnecessary. We emit too much carbon for biomass to be a solution. The particulars are just trivia.

It is however a long term solution---functioning as a carbon sink, assuming we actually do something about reducing carbon emissions.

Why can't we build with this carbon? We could build a pyramid to space with it

>> No.10962297

>>10962181
No, it's not. Plants reach an equilibrium where they die just as fast as they grow so you're only storing some carbon in the living plants. It's nothing compared to the amount that needs to be removed from the atmosphere. Plants are not any kind of solution for carbon sequestration and have no place in this discussion.

>> No.10962302

>>10962215
If you can find a way to keep in in the structure you build then it'd work just fine. Concrete uses carbon in it's formula, but it releases CO2 over time so it's not really an option for carbon sequestration.

Not true. Reforestation can play a huge role in sequestering carbon. Or is that solution not compatible with your precious economic/population growth? Fucking shill

You are a legit moron. I even explained it using small words and you still don't understand this simple concept.

Let's try this from another angle. Explain to me in what way do plants help with carbon sequestration. Be specific and use magnitudes.
