We Just Breached the 410 PPM Threshold for CO2

There is nothing deceptive about trying to take over a political party. It is in fact exactly how political parties work. The Tea Party accomplished a partial takeover of the GOP in 2010, and Bernie Sanders is working on the Democrats still.

Political parties belong to whoever tries the hardest to run them.

I envision DNA scientists be able to produce a much efficient plankton/ trees.

Trees are only 2-4% efficient at converting solar energy. What if we discovered the secret of chlorophyll and we're to be able to make trees 10x more efficient.

Trees that trap co2 and heat and give us hydrocarbon rich oil, hydrogen, water and oxygen.

Suppose we could improve tree efficiency 20x, those trees would also grow fast. We'd be able to control the thickness so we get lumber ready trees for building. The trees would possibly be with dark and make some sort of flat canopy trapping sunlight efficiently.

I have hope that we'll discover this secrets and a future generation will invent something ground breaking

So you are admitting that this is politically rather than scientifically driven?

Okay then.
