The people who push for us to stop using fossil fuels, do not understand that a replacement is necessary, before that can happen.by using carbon capture technologies. And, we shouldn't bankrupt our country in doing it and we shouldn't regulate current businesses out of business. For the most part, 90% of our efforts should be in removing carbon from the atmosphere. Of course, we should phase in cleaner energy while letting dirty energy phase out on it's own without purposely pushing it over the cliff. You can't stop humans from being born or decreasing the actual population so if we realistically want to win the war we have to win it by figuring out how to remove carbon from the atmosphere. I'm tired of hearing Greta tell us that it is our fault.

You're missing an important part of this equation, which is reducing the energy consumption of individual Americans, by making our homes and workplaces more energy efficient. One way of doing this is by installing new appliances which consume less energy, which not only means less fuel being burned, but lower electricity bills as well.
Another method is to improve the insulation of the many aging homes in America. Poor insulation means more fuel being burned to keep the house warm, or cool, depending on the location. In addition, new homes and workplaces should incorporate design features with an eye toward reduced energy consumption.

You can do all of that, but it will not move the needle with China, India, and the underdeveloped countries exempted.
Trump saw through the scam and said nyet to the American taxpayers' money being given away.
Humans can not stop the climate from changing or the sea level rising. Humans are less than 1/3rd of 1% of green house gases. Kill all humans on earth and it would change nothing.
Rather than trying to stop the endless evolution and cycles of earth, the only rational approach is to address the inevitable. We have decades to centuries for the most part.
12,000 years ago the sea level was 200 feet lower. 2000 years ago it was about 5-6 feet lower. 1000 years ago about 3 feet lower. 10 years ago an around an inch to an inch and a half. It is going to continue to rise as the last ice age ice continues to melt.
