Hey Folke,

Thanks,

In a recent letter (yesterday), Jim Hansen says:
There is tremendous potential for reducing atmospheric CO2 via reduction of
deforestation, improved forestry practices, and improved agricultural
practices that
increase carbon storage in the soil. If governments were to encourage such
practices,
rather than the converse, and if coal use were phased out except where the
CO2 is
captured, it would be possible to literally roll back the net human-made
climate forcing to
levels below those defining critical tipping points.
We must remember, at the same time, that the ability of the principal CO2
sink, the ocean,
to soak up human-made emissions is limited and slow (Figure 1). If we burn
most of the
available coal (Figure 3) without CO2 capture, even with the lowest
estimates of available
coal reserves, it will be impractical if not impossible to avoid passing
climate tipping
points with disastrous consequences.
