The "solution" to the GHG issue, as I see it, is carbon-scrubbers and reclaimers.

"The operation has been capturing CO2 since May, but its primary purpose is to prove that the technology can work on a much larger scale, taking in up to one-million tonnes per day."
Imagine, reclaiming ONE MILLION tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere, every day....plants like this in the US, India, China...our air could be cleaner than when we first got here!

I posted the discussion thread for this on the Canada part of the forum. Definitely huge potential for Canada to become the place the world pays for clean air.
