There are a lot of parameters that need to be worked on. We need to use every reasonable weapon we have.

1. We need to cut down on animal farming. This can be done if people consume less animal products. The best way to do that is to put extra taxes on animal products. If the prize of the products reflects the impact it has on the environment, that is a significant step in the right direction.

2. It shall be more favorable to use means of transport that have lesser carbon footprint, for instance bike, train, bus instead of plane and car. This can be done by lowering ticket prizes for public transport, put higher taxes on gasolin and flight tickets.

3. Massive public investment in renewable energy such as solar power, wind energy etc.

4. We need to use the science we know will help. And get rid of the science-phobia. Nuclear energy and genetically modified organisms can be of great use in the fight against climate change.

5. Birth control in countries where population growth is out of hands.

You're wrong, plants produce as much CO2 as us because they also need to break the sugar they produce through photosystesis by respiration to produce energy. The biggest procuders of O2 are the microscopic algae that live in the oceans.

The O2 output by Amazon forest, for example, is null, because it is also consumed by both plants and animals because they both breath. Only people that never studied even basic biology believe in the falacy that Amazon is the lungs of the world.

Plants store CO2 into their cells,they keep hold of it and that is what makes them important.

People should consider losing the "produced" term and consider just calling it released as the difference in CO2 in our atmosphere depends mostly on how it is stored in plantlife and fossils(fuels) and how it is released again by lets say humanity using those storages for consumption.

Check your facts before you call people wrong.

That last sentence in your response is pure gold. Here's a link to basc biology:

"During daytime, photosynthesis produces oxygen and glucose faster than respiration consumes it. Photosynthesis also uses carbon dioxide faster than respiration produces it. Oxygen surplus is released into the air and unused glucose stored in the plant for later use."

You heard about the melting ice? I did some research and plotted this graph of the ice area since the beginning of the data set in 2006 for the Northern Hemisphere. There is a huge amount of seasonal variation but no trend.

The people that don't take this climate crisis seriously should have their opinions disregarded because obviously they're living in a fantasy world where there are no consequences for the haphazard unsustainable way we've been living and treating our planet.

Just two off the top of my head:
- Actively punish anybody who invests in coal mines, new oil wells or fossil fuels in general
- Remove the fuel excise from fossil fuel companies, redirect the billions that go to mining companies every year into R&D into, and rapid implementation of, renewable energy sources (In Australia, our tax money pays for the fuel mining companies use, obviously corrupt and immoral)

I acknowledge that the Earth's climate is changing. I am not convinced that it's a problem though, and I am nearly certain it is not an urgent matter. Since at least the 1970s there have been constant warnings about imminent disaster. Thus far, 100% of them were either completely false, or have had wildly exaggerated timelines.

If we stipulate that something needs to be done, the very low hanging fruit is to stop discouraging the development of nuclear power. That's certainly where Americans should start. Europeans should stop discouraging the use of GMOs, as that just exacerbates the climate impact of agriculture. I don't know enough about the other regions to know what stupid things they should stop doing. But, certainly nuclear power and GMOs are beneficial in combating pollution in general, and should be used everywhere possible.

Move to a place with a better climate. Living next to a rising sea can be filed under living next to an active vulcano, flood zone, tornado alley, Florida, etc. Oh no the river flooded again, so many dead, so much destruction, lets rebuild in the same place...

For now it's no use. Summers get hotter, turn up the AC, use more power. Winters get colder, turn up the heat, use more fossil fuels. Steady as she goes.
