Oppss.... we will be out of fossil fuel before we need to implement Carbon Trade scams
Quote - "(Hassen) grossly underestimated the scale of the problem." But please give him more funding, media attention and credit for this gross error in data
A renowned global-warming scientist says the problem of global warming is much more serious than previously estimated. However, he also hints that there may be no need to fear catastrophic carbon-driven climate upheaval, as mankind will run out fossil fuels much sooner than presently estimated.
James Hansen, chief of NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, was one of the first to warn about global warming decades ago. What we have found is that the target we have all been aiming for is a disaster - a guaranteed disaster," Hansen told the Guardian over the weekend.
But Hansen said his findings were not a recipe for despair. The good news, he said, is that reserves of fossil fuels have been exaggerated, so an alternative source of energy will have to be rapidly put in place in any case. Other measure could include a moratorium on coal power stations which would bring the C02 levels to below 400ppm.
Regarding solutions, Hansen himself has said "a 350ppm target is only achievable by phasing out coal use", at present one of humanity's main power sources. He believes the missing coal energy could be easily replaced by better-insulated buildings, more efficient transport, etc. . Read more VIA - REGISTER, UK
