  2. Archer et al., 2009 CO2 stays in the atmosphere for a long time.

  3. If we removed all excess CO2 from the atmosphere today, that would offset only about half the warming Cao et al 2011

  4. US per capita CO2 emissions are about 50 kg/day~110 pounds/day

  5. Energy system transitions aren’t easy

  6. Caldeira et al., 2013

  7. Carbon dioxide removal proposals Caldeira et al., 2013

  8. American average per capita CO2 production about 50 kg CO2 / day about 110 pounds CO2 / day about twice level of EU, China

  9. GOES East, 18 July 2013
