You sound rather afraid actually. I'm not surprised as we are essentially adrift and in the unknown climate arena with a gun at our head, desperately hoping that the chamber is empty. The current duststorms raging over Australia don't help on the frights front I admit. I live in the South Island of New Zealand and they're drifting across to us! In fact, they obscured Christchurch and caused a temperature spike of 20 celsius in a hour last week.
There's probably a lot to be said of the "It's not true, he's not a scientist, he can't be right, he is only modelling, it's all too big for us. I need more proof, we can use mirrors in space, we can grow trees, we can use artifical trees" mindset. Afterall, what can anyone do but make whooppee and hope he dies before TSHTF.

lol, he is more of a techie inventor kind than a breakthrough scientist, which is perfectly fine
