Assuming nobody still doubts global warming.

I've been saying this for the past 8 years....and only now they think they should do something about Global Warming.
Lol.

Global warming is the result of over 150 years of polluting, and unless someone designs an atmospheric scrubber that can remove gigatons of pollution from the air, we are not going to be fixing it any time soon.

We've killed our own world. Meh, Somehow I'm not surprised..

The carbon dioxide doesn't stay in the atmosphere forever, you know.

It will if we keep adding more to it without letting it all fade away.

unless you can get all of industry to stop polluting all at once, the only other option for a quick fix is cleaning the air more than industry pollutes.

Or you could just move to Iceland, and watch the rest of the countries rot away around you while your economy thrives.

I say we move to GREENLAND. Iceland is covered in grass.

Greenland is covered in ice.

Tricky aye? We learned that in History..

Why move to an icy place that will melt with global warming?

Iceland has hot springs, spas and tourist attractions. Not to mention a fairly good economy.

Greenland is just bleh.

Plus, in Iceland, they grow bananas and 99% of their energy is either hydroelectric or geothermal.

And the island is growing 1.1 cm each year since the techtonic plates are ripping the island in two...and the lava below is making it seem like the island is simply growing.
