Lets say that the world takes the amount of carbon it produces and tries to reduce it by one percent a year through conservation, one percent a year through greater fuel efficency, one percent a year on carbon scrubbing, shift energy production to zero emmision sources by one percent a year adding up to reducing the total amount of carbon being released by four percent the first year and an aditional four percent every year after that until finally the emmision of global warming causing gases are being scrubed out as fast as there being released taking twenty five years to acomplish at which point the excess carbon that's already been released can be scrubbed out of the atomosphere eventually completely reversing the problem?

nope........ according to this, there's no point bothering to try, as no matter what we do, global warming is happening anyway and trying to halt / slow it down will only mean the process is delayed by 6yrs:

No...Global warming is at the point of being irreversible, the only thing people can do now is to change their way of living to slow down the GW Effect! We can all start by selling our cars and riding a bike or taking public transportation...and I mean ALL.
Are people willing to do that? Hell No! Why? Because they have become spoiled and not willing to make the sacrifices it will take to slow down the process. Ask every activist you meet if they still drive a car...until they give theirs up then I will support them. So I say everyone get your SPF 1 million ready cause your gonna need it!

Jay. Carbon Dioxide is not tied to the smoke that comes out of a plane. It is a gas and is free to diffuse anywhere.
Even a global warming skeptic would be embarrassed by the ignorance of that answer!

carbon does'nt have anything to do with global-warming== and I'll let YOU prove it. When you see a airplane flying with black smoke coming out of its exhaust, watch it for a while and watch the black smoke drop, so HOW does vehicle exhaust go up 100 miles to the ozone if aircraft exhaust drops.

Sounds reasonable, start the implementation before we all die.
