Is this the solution to Global Warming?

I think it might have potential...

Certainly we need to spend more money trapping CO2 emissions from coal fired stations. This would probably be one of the most efficient ways to invest money, rather than in nuclear power. Hopefully the science will spread fairly quickly...

What about this one?

Cloudmaking ships

Sunlight heats the planet, but puffy, low-flying clouds reflect sunlight. So to reduce global temperatures, National Center for Atmospheric Research physicist John Latham and Edinburgh University engineer Stephen Salter want to make clouds.

In October, Latham explained his vision for a fleet of unmanned, self-propelled vessels crossing the world's oceans and seeding clouds by misting seawater high into the air. Just a thousand ships would offset temperature rises resulting from a global CO2 doubling, Latham said. He and Salter recently joined with climate-modeling guru Phil Rasch to determine the ships' potential to upset weather systems, including rainfall. "Questions like that have to be answered first," Latham said. "But I'm much more confident than I was a year ago."

Let's hope they keep them well away from Ireland!

No, the only way is to grow more trees .Its not the planet that needs saving ,its the human race.The planet will rejuvenate when we are gone and make way for the next species to rule the earth. There is no money to be made in growing trees, but big money in anti global warming projects. Is it not ironic ,that the fossil fuels we use today only came to be,as a result of the after effects of global warming.If everyone on the planet planted one tree a year it would be enough to reverse global warming. Forget about saving the planet,save our forests.
