even more hot air

The chances of a successful outcome at Copenhagen have faded dramatically over recent weeks. The talks seem fated to become nothing more than even more hot air.

The dreaded facts are the number one emitter of co2 is energy sourced from fossil fuels. Of all the energy sources, burning coal is the largest contributor to man made greenhouse gases. Therefore it makes a lot of scientific and economic sense to target coal first. (read Carbon sequestration)

Once this technology is perfected, then a dramatic commitment to electric powered vehicles can be achieved by all world governments by 2020. In this way achieving 350ppm is possible by 2100.
