Can you then explain how that adaptation process would work effectively, and how it would be more cost effective?
you'll be waiting a long time for member TimG to respond. In the adapt-R-us-Only world of TimG, current levels of atmospheric CO2 and continuing increases in atmospheric CO2 to the tune of a billion tons of CO2 released into the atmosphere every 10 days... those levels are just so inconsequential! He perpetually just throws out this nebulous buzzword like reference to "adaptation" while castigating anyone who presumes to align with a combined mitigation/adaptation/prevention approach. To TimG encroaching on the sancity of the status-quo fossil-fuel usage is blasphemy to his BigOil allegiance... discussing pie-in-the sky type Geo-engineering solutions to remove CO2 from the atmosphere is just outright heresy!
