$45 trillion needed to combat warming Well, this number is about 4 times (or more) than the US GNP...We don't know if 'warming/cooling/change' is even anything other than the figments of some minds. They have shown NO proof...(ice cores for the last 200,000 years might help....or tree rings from trees over 1000 years old in various parts of the world....etc) Are we really going to spend anything like the numbers in that article, and get nothing for it? We'd be better off to control volcanos from spewing so much trash in the air every year and that man couldn't possibly do, even if there were ten times as many people. Or we could spend money to use all the methane gas that is bubbling up every single second from every waterway in the world....Surely there must be some energy that can be harnessed from this source too....
