Research from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) suggests that carbon sequestering can reduce human generated CO2 up to 80 percent of 1990 levels by 2050 (Fairley, 2009). Fifty years ago, climate models accurately predicted that greenhouse gases cause global warming (Hausfather et al, 2020). Fairley, P.

In fact, physics tells us that for every 1 degree Celsius of warming, our atmosphere can hold about seven percent more moisture. As water vapor itself is a potent greenhouse gas, more water vapor in the atmosphere means accelerated global warming. Sea level rising (not because of melting).
