Here is another interesting read from our own government agency. Atlantic hurricanes have become stronger because of ocean warming.
But the reason at least currently the oceans are now warmer is because of air pollution regulations that have reduced particular matter that was reflecting sunlight back out into space
By the way, I take no position and don’t take this comment too serious but I don’t care and the reason I don’t is taxpayers are being milked into electric vehicles for a small percentage of CO2 that they contribute to our atmosphere, let’s say 12 or 14% at the most.
Furthermore, I am not convinced that the Earth cannot handle a higher output of CO2 as algae in the ocean will take up more CO2 plants, trees, flowers, agriculture will grow better, faster, and greener with higher amounts of CO2
As an example, some aquarium keepers with live plans will inject into water carbon dioxide to further create a lush garden inside the aquarium
Marijuana and vegetable growers increase the amount of CO2 inside of their greenhouses to make the plants grow faster, more robust, and better
The cost in my opinion, far outweighs any forecast that this is going to reduce warming
Anyway, he’s an interesting read

@buster I edited this above and added to it, but I think you read it before I finished.
Anyway, good conversation and I’m really not on one side or the other. I just don’t want the other side to cost me too much money unless it could be absolutely proven however I think we’re going about it wrong. If that is the case first let’s get rid of all fossil fuel, burning power plants in the world and replace them with nuclear, which I believe will do more for the atmosphere than automobiles, but what do I know?
OK, back outside working on the house
