Save the World! Win 25 Million….?

Well, Sir Richard Branson is taking it seriously, I think,….offering a 25 Million dollar prize to anyone who can invent a way to extract greenhouse gases from the atmosphere. The announcment was made with Al Gore… This comes a few months after Branson committed 3 billion to investigating alternative fuel development.

I think it might be too late for that Christine.
Climate activists, I think, would do well to advocate halting GHG emmisions (like we already do), AND extracting them somehow, AND preparing for climate change impacts.
