No, it won’t, because CO2 is not the control knob, and even net zero will only change things a tiny, tiny bit. So, this is a bit of excuse making
Reducing greenhouse gas emission even to zero won’t stop global warming: Study
Scientists have been warning for years that climate change is a very real threat that mankind faces. But many, including prominent world leaders have ignored this. This may have resulted in inadequate response to the problem and we may be at a point of no return. These fears may be true according to researchers who say that global warming will continue even if greenhouse gas emissions responsible for it are reduced to zero.
“According to our models, humanity is beyond the point-of-no-return when it comes to halting the melting of permafrost using greenhouse gas cuts as the single tool,” lead author Jorgen Randers, a professor emeritus of climate strategy at the BI Norwegian Business School, told AFP.
The researchers have published their finding in the journal Scientific Reports.
So what’s the way to stop global warming?
What is it?
According to the researchers, the only way to do it is to extract greenhouse gases from the atmosphere and store them so that they do not go back into it.
On the bright side, this would most likely not bankrupt our economy and citizens, nor take away freedoms, liberty, and choice. This is one of the few “plans” I’ve seen which doesn’t involve massive Big Government being authoritarian. Of course, what could possibly go wrong with sucking GHGs out of the atmosphere, and perhaps starting a new ice age?
But many scientists are contesting the claims made in the study and also the method by which the study was conducted.
Mark Maslin, a professor of climatology at University College London, also pointed to shortcomings in the model, known as ESCIMO, describing the study as a “thought experiment.”
“What the study does draw attention to is that reducing global carbon emissions to zero by 2050” — a goal championed by the UN and embraced by a growing number of countries — “is just the start of our actions to deal with climate change.”
For one thing, many of these climate cult scientists would be against a simple plan like sucking GHGs out of the atmosphere because it means they are no longer needed, that they would lose power, influence, and money. And, many do want that Big Government, thinking they will be spared the pain, like priests in other cults.

Even if we stopped emitting greenhouse gas today, the Earth would continue warming for centuries. Arctic ice and permafrost are already on an irreversible path of melting.

Dirty coal and oil are the main contributors towards global warming and climate change. They are also the main sources of energy for the rich, industrialized countries. The need for their cheap and reliable availability and transportation is perhaps the largest cause for war and conflict across the world.
