1. Man is causing global warming which is going to destroy 90% of species and 100% of mankind who are going to suffocate of excess CO2.

2. The only way to avert the above is instant reduction of CO2 emissions by 50%.

3. Cap and trade, cap and fine are impossible to effectively police, at best they shift the emissions from one place in the globe to another and it fails to address the emissions from food production.

4. We do not have a technological maggufin to fix it.

5. The only absolutely certain way to reduce emissions instantly is to reduce population.

What is the conclusion after having a nice cup of tea and warm good faith discussion?

What the hell kind of strawmen are you erecting here.

1. 90% of species and extinction of humanity? Where was this said?
2. “Instant” reductions by 50%? Again, who said this? And what do you mean by instant?
3. Yes Cap and Trade is dumb as it stands now.
4. Who says we don’t? Everything we need to fight AGW we have right now. We just need to be willing to make sacrifices and think more long-term.
5. uh. lol.

>>>That is true for the scientist doing the empirical observing and experimenting, but it isn’t true for a layperson who will have to believe the scientist.<<<
You don’t have to believe the scientist. You can try and follow along if you’re able. But just because you’re too stupid to doesn’t mean the science is supposed to be taken on faith. Christ. You’re really confusing your own ignorance with faith here. And the level of your stupidity in being able to differentiate it really makes it no surprise that you can’t understand the science behind AGW.
