Using science to cut carbon in the atmosphere

If you still believe that CO2 in the atmosphere is the cause of global warming and if you still believe that humanity is the prime cause of this CO2, then I would have thought that you would greet today's reports that scientists can envisage artificial tress being placed alongside motorways that could scrub all of the emissions from UK transport from the atmosphere with joy and relief. It seems I would be wrong because just as I was waking up this morning I heard the tail-end of a BBC Radio 4 news report that ended with a quote something like "even if this technology did work, it should not stop us from reducing the output of CO2". How odd, one might be forgiven for thinking that the aim of the enviromentalists was not the reduction of CO2 but the destruction of Western civilization and science in the name of "fairness". Those that abandoned Marxism have reappeared wearing the clothes of Greenism, the reasons may differ but the aims are the same.

To be expected. there are so many people whose lives and careers depend on there being 'problems'. If someone invented a 100% effective, totally safe, fast operating, cheap cure for AIDs, hundreds of thousands of people would be bitterly disappointed, from the AIDs quango Leftists to the puritan Right
