Make no mistake: Tackling climate change is vital. But to see everything through the lens of short-term CO2 reductions, letting our obsession with carbon blind us to the bigger picture, is to court catastrophe. Alex Steffen

Change Mistake Picture Our Everything See Vital Tackling Through Catastrophe Obsession Blind Make Make No Mistake Court Climate Climate Change Reductions Bigger Bigger Picture Short-Term Lens Us CO2 Carbon Letting

We now know that we cannot continue to put ever-increasing amounts of CO2 into the atmosphere. Actions have consequences. In fact, the consequences of past actions are already in the pipeline. Global temperatures are rising. Glaciers are melting. Sea levels are rising. Extreme weather events are multiplying. Cary Fowler

Events Weather Past Consequences Extreme We Cannot Melting Temperatures Atmosphere Rising Fact Glaciers Put Global Know Continue Pipeline In Fact Cannot CO2 Sea Actions Multiplying Now Amount Levels

Undoubtedly, at the moment, the major cause of CO2 emission is what happens in developed countries. Chris Patten

Every footstep we take, every action has a consequence. We breathe in weather, but we breathe out CO2. We're responsible for weather and for climate. Gretel Ehrlich

Weather Action Every Out Responsible Take Climate Breathe CO2 Consequence

We designed a car that is for daily commutes and that you charge every day. The less you use the gasoline engine, the better mpg. Essentially, the Karma can achieve dramatic savings and low CO2 output when used as intended, as a daily commuter. Henrik Fisker

Despite all the progress climate scientists have made in understanding the risks we run by loading the atmosphere with CO2, the world is still as addicted to fossil fuels as ever. Jeff Goodell

Risks World Progress Made Understanding Addicted Despite Run Atmosphere Climate Still Scientists Fuels CO2 Fossil Fossil Fuels Ever

The science is clear that there is an increase in the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. What is not clear from the science is how much of that increase is caused by human activity; and what also is not clear is what impact those increases have on the climatic cycle. Jim Sensenbrenner

Science Increase Increases Those Impact Atmosphere Clear Also How How Much Caused Human Human Activity Much CO2 Cycle Activity Amount

CO2 is not a pollutant in any normal definition of the term. Joe Barton

Definition Term Normal Any CO2

First and foremost, energy efficiency is a major lever for reducing CO2 emissions along all parts of the energy chain - from the production of resources all the way to final consumption. Joe Kaeser

First Energy Final Resources Way Emissions Consumption Major Along Parts Reducing Foremost Efficiency Energy Efficiency CO2 Production Chain Lever

The industrialization of China alone would increase by 90 percent the concentration of CO2 in our atmosphere and would at least increase the atmospheric CO2 by at least another 100 parts per million. John Olver

Alone Increase Our Would Atmosphere Atmospheric Per Percent Concentration Industrialization Another Parts Least China CO2 Million

We have fans that circulate air in the cabin of the module of the space shuttle. They're running all the time. They're absolutely necessary because, otherwise, you will breathe your own CO2 and intoxicate yourself quite fast. Julie Payette

It is important that carbon storage is carefully regulated, that the process is transparent to the public, and that there is a clear accounting of what happened to the CO2. This is particularly true of underground storage, where there is always a small chance that pressurized CO2 could escape. Klaus Lackner

The fact that companies are getting into building power plants that collect their own CO2 on-site shows there's some leadership in that industry. Some industries have seen the writing on the wall: that carbon will have to be managed. Klaus Lackner

If you ever really want to get away from it all and see something that you have never seen, and have an excellent chance of seeing something no one has ever seen, get in a sub. You climb in, seal the hatch, turn on a little oxygen, turn on the scrubber, which removes the CO2 in the air you breathe, and they chuck you overboard. Down you go. Mike deGruy

You Seen Down Air Chuck Hatch See Seeing Something Excellent Never No-One Overboard Climb Go Get Oxygen Want Which Little Turn Breathe Turn-On CO2 Really Seal Away Ever Chance

Prime Minister Cameron says he wants to be the greenest government ever, but the definition of green is immature... I don't deny for a moment that CO2 is a greenhouse gas, but there are so many other factors that affect climate. It is more complicated than the computer models that we are using. What the truth is, nobody knows. Nigel Lawson

Truth Government Truth Is Complicated Other Immature Says Definition Minister More Computer Factors He Nobody Prime Prime Minister Knows Climate Affect Cameron Deny Than Green Models Greenhouse Wants CO2 Moment Many Using Ever Gas

Clearly the climate is changing, whether caused by CO2 emissions or some other cause. Paul Craig Roberts

I'm really interested in how you create a whole new economy of recycling. It's literally the 'underground economy.' All this stuff that on the surface creates growth and profit, ends up with waste, junk, and CO2. So how do you make it economic to bring new players into the ball game? Peter Senge

You Game Recycling Profit Economic Stuff New Economy Underground Make Ball Ball Game How Surface Up Junk Ends Literally Interested Create CO2 Really Creates Whole Waste Growth Bring Players

If you had no new technology, and you powered society as we do today - mostly by fossil fuels - you'd have only two choices: Doom yourself to horrific climate change by burning all that carbon and releasing all that CO2. Or power down society, reducing total energy usage around the planet. Ramez Naam

Today You Technology Change Yourself Power Energy Down Society Releasing Total Horrific Only Had Powered New Mostly Around Climate Climate Change Reducing New Technology Doom Burning Fuels Planet CO2 Choices Usage Fossil Fossil Fuels Carbon Two

It's fine if you're making 1,000 or 2,000 of an electric car, and I think there is value in that in a lot of ways, but it's not going to have a big dent in oil consumption in the country, or CO2 emissions. Rick Wagoner

You Car Value Country Big Think Ways Fine Emissions Consumption Making Lot Dent Going Oil CO2 Electric

Putting aside for the moment the question of whether human industrial CO2 emissions are having an effect on climate, it is quite clear that they are raising atmospheric CO2 levels. As a result, they are having a strong and markedly positive effect on plant growth worldwide. There is no doubt about this. Robert Zubrin

Positive Strong Result Plant Doubt Worldwide No Doubt Atmospheric About Having Emissions Clear Putting Industrial Climate Question Effect Quite Human Whether Aside CO2 Moment Growth Levels Raising

For someone to say that someone's a skeptic or a climate denier about the climate changing, that's just nonsensical. We see that throughout history. We impact the climate by our activity. How much so is very difficult to determine with respect to our CO2 or carbon footprint, but we obviously do. Scott Pruitt

History Respect Difficult Changing Our Say See Impact About Someone Determine Throughout Footprint Obviously How Climate How Much Nonsensical Very Just Skeptic Much CO2 Activity Carbon

I think that if you don't do the full analysis of what the origin of the electrical power is, where it comes from, how you get batteries into these cars, what the cost is in terms of CO2 and the environment, I think the analysis that we are going to save the planet with electric cars is nonsense. Sergio Marchionne

Almost every way we make electricity today, except for the emerging renewables and nuclear, puts out CO2. And so, what we're going to have to do at a global scale, is create a new system. And so, we need energy miracles. Bill Gates
