As a life long meteorologist I hesitate to inform that not only are you
paying for this with your tax money, but this stupidity is going to be
perpetrated on the rest of us sooner rather than later.
I say this because the greenhouse gas which exists in the largest
concentration in the atmosphere is water vapor, not CO2. Significantly,
water vapor comprises 36 to 72% of the greenhouse gases while CO2 comprises
9 to 26%. The amount of water vapor in the atmosphere increases when
atmospheric temperatures increase. You do the math but what this means is
that we can't control atmospheric warming by controlling the relatively
smaller concentrations of CO2 at its present rate of increase. Moreover,
there is NO credible scientific evidence that what little warming there
might be is a result of man made increases in greenhouse gases.
This flies in the face of current hysteria over Anthropogenic Global Warming
(AGW). Believe what you wish... You are going to pay for it whether its man
made or part of natural climate cycles because politicians aren't scientists
and because they have learned that AGW is a lucrative pursuit.
Cheers!!
