The resilience of the Earth is far greater than anything Man can throw at it at this point.

Do you know that its believed the climate of Iraq was much wetter....think Hanging Gardens of Babylon wetter? There were important forests along its western boundary that were cut down by man. Eventually the climate became much drier....much like it is today. Its believed cutting down those forests did the trick. There is similar evidence of localized climate change like that throughout the world. Los Angeles is far more humid due human habitation than it was 200 years ago. Due to the cutting down of trees, Beijing is faced with incredible dust storms in the summer and the ongoing encroachment of the adjacent desert. Why would you want to risk fukking with our climate because you think the earth is "resilent"? Doesn't make any sense.
