GOP Pushes Back on EPA Carbon Regulation

Strange. I did not infer that Jean-Francois was suggesting that the ideal population should be 10 billion, but was suggesting that 10 billion people will put an impossible strain on present food sources, and we will need to seek drastic and more immediate solutions. Presently, according to the World Census, there are 6,798,100,00 people on this Earth. At nearly 7 billion in 2010, Jean-Francois is indicating that we are not far off from this dire food and water situation. Actually, Tim B of WA, I thought your comments to Jean-Francois, Tim B of WA, were really quite patronizing. It appears to that Jean is suggesting possible solutions to food and water shortages and to the dire effects of global warming.

Should you not read Swiss news, Switzerland is extremely concerned about glacier melting (they can see it), and, in addition, are witnessing the obviously dire signs of food and water shortages. Water shortages are NOT only in arid regions. He is also stating that even when there are just 6 billion, as there are presently, we are already experiencing these food and water shortages and global warming consequences, so imagine what it will be like at 10 billion.

Jean-Francois is is also reminding us in the United States that we have done some amazing things to this Earth that are positive, such as turning deserts to a green trees and water (think of Las Vegas), and how can we now come up with more amazing solutions. In Jean-Francois's statement here (just below), I must admit I am not sure of his statement:

"ASAP our oceans can take Tera tons of CO2 out of our atmosphere, to save mankind from heating!"

I am going to guess, by Jean's suggestions, that he knows his science well, while I am NOT a person with great knowledge in science. My educated guess would be that he is saying we might salvage more land from the ocean which will remove excessive CO2 from our atmosphere?....

Is this possible, scientists? Can land pull CO2 from the atmosphere? I DID find this Website that (to me) indicates what Jean-Francois might possibly be telling us about land (tera) and CO2:

I have been to Switzerland recently, and it is, indeed beautiful! The Swiss, however, are more truthfully informed of environmental conditions than we in the U.S. are, and are more greatly concerned about the many negative indications of environmental pollution and its consequences for life on Earth.

P.S. I am embarrassed to admit this, but I just read Jean-Francois's translation of his own letter--just above mine!! I did not realize that he had written a reply right after his own first letter. I still say that Tim B of WA was really patronizing.
