Imperative 03: We have to popularize global warming causes and their mass-based solutions!

    Here are more causes of continuing global warming which most of humanity are currently unaware of, and which we must therefore popularize: 
    1. Human efforts at CO2 mitigation have so far yielded puny effects.  Most of humanity's current carbon mitigation action address prevention of more additions to some 700 billion tons of CO2 already in the atmosphere.  Unfortunately, such action have sequestered only a few billion tons out of such gas over the past decades.  Instead, human industries and transports keep adding some 36-40 million tons more CO2 to the atmosphere each year, thus further expanding the volume and raising the temperature of Earth's already hot water vapor blanket.
    3. Heated water vapor is the principal cause of climate change tragedies.  It is the action of clouds and hot water vapor that creates the terrible climatic scourges suffered especially by billions of 3rd World poor.  On occasion. hot, thickened water vapor reacts with cool air in clouds and the Earth's spin to create typhoons that become increasingly stronger as oceanic and atmospheric temperatures rise, especially in the tropics.  The result is destruction of entire tropical regions' painfully built-up buildings, houses, properties, infrastructures, and livelihoods. The Philippines suffers most, at an average 20 typhoons and storms that get stronger each year.  Resultant plains-wide floods and upland landslides combine with 150-200 kph winds to raise casualties to thousand levels each year.  Billions of pesos' worth of consequent State and private property damage thereby help perpetuate mass poverty in the country.
    4. The 3rd world's bottom poor suffer most from global warming.  Worldwide summer droughts, forest and farm kill-offs and giant forest fires brought about by global warming exacerbate mass hunger especially among billions of 3rd World bottom poor.  Upland farms that depend on seasonal rains are the worst sufferers of long droughts, with families sharing just one root crop meal each day.  Drinking water get scarce as upland streams dry up, forcing little kids to cross mountains to get mere jerry cans of water for drinking.  The realities explain why 66 million Elementary level poor (expensive higher education being next to impossible for bottom poor) currently exist in the Philippines alone. 
    How do we address the tragedies?  We use business tools to address the issue, because businesses create wealth which is desired by everyone. We motivate employee and managerial masses and the corporations they work with, as well as governments and all the world's business, political and social organizations to capitalize and lend to corporate joint ventures in the 3rd World that will create high-profit industries that use clean and green technologies.  Agro-forestry and ocean fertilization (which enriches fisheries) as well as agribusinesses, clean rural factories, rural infrastructures and power projects (mini hydropower nets, geothermal plants, etc.) and other related projects can generate wealth in trillions of 3rd World dollars yearly in perpetuity.  The perpetual nature of such wealth-making as world habit will ensure that all involved will keep cleaning planet Earth in perpetuity, for everyone desires perpetual income.  You and your friendship nets, being skilled in business and now aware of your redemptive powers, just have to lead!

Imperative 13: We should entice world capital into the CO2 mitigation campaigns!

    Since global warming is planet scale, we have to target global scale funds from both State and private sectors to initiate and pursue climate change financing action.  Fundamentally, the world's investment and lending funds are so huge and 'expandable' that, given an attractive and practical profit-based strategy, a mere 10% of the amounts will prove more than enough to suck up most of the 700+ billion tons of Earth's atmospheric CO2 while creating jobs for five billion 3rd World poor within mere decades.  Here are recent US dollar estimates from which we can source potential 'air cleaner' financial tools, based on internet data: a) total value, world banks' and peoples' coins and banknotes: $81 trillion; b) stock shares in world stock markets: $70 trillion; c) global bonds: $100 trillion; d) global currency trades: $5 trillion per day ; e) global stock market buy/sell deals: $700 trillion during economic crises, $1.2 quadrillion and up during good t...

Imperative 10: Mega co-op corporate groups should fast-track climate change action!

    Japan pioneered corporate group formation in East Asia in 1860s to early 1900s.  To build a prosperous economy, the 1860s Japanese government imported entire steel mills, parts-making factories, defense works and other industries from USA, UK, and Germany.  Imports included engineering trainers.  Once profitable, the government sold the industries to local elites at low prices and long-term installment.  Since elite families were few, they cornered the deals, in the process creating corporate groups (zaibatsu) that numbered scores of companies per family.  The zaibatsu soon captured large chunks of the Korean, Chinese and other Pacific Rim markets, in the process lifting the Japanese masses' living standards to a great degree.      Japanese industries' need for raw materials however led to the Japanese armed forces' conquest of Pacific Rim nations from 1942 to '45.  Japan was roundly defeated and occupied by US forces in 1945, ...

Imperative 02: We should all know why Earth is heating up!

    How did global warming come about, as the experts say?   Based on data averages from various reputable scientific organizations' studies (website sources), hordes of scientists (and now the author) envision the following cause and effect scenarios that may lead to a nightmarish end for all life on Earth within a few decades , unless appropriate action is made by all capable humans starting now:     1. Almost a trillion tons of greenhouse gases now blanket our planet.  From 1750s to present, the world's factories, power plants, steel mills, transports, etc. have used coal and hydrocarbons as fuel.  These days, their combined emissions (largely carbon dioxide or CO2) have been estimated by scientists at a low 550 billion tons to a high 1.5 trillion tons, or mid-range 720 billion tons and rising.  The heat-absorbing gases have stayed within Earth's atmosphere and will likely remain for thousands or millions of years (as in planet Mars), or disa...
