All that is required to expose the current and likely future high rates of greenhouse gas emissions is to examine the actual business plans of major fossil fuel corporations to maintain existing fossil fuel operations and plans already on the books for future pipelines, wells, oil and gas field developments, etc. All the claims of goals for a carbon neutral future, net zero, carbon sequestration, blah , blah blah, are often greenwash propaganda to hoodwink the public and politicians, etc. Many well meaning people it seems actually believe the propaganda!</div><div style="box-sizing:inherit"><div>***** Original material contained herein is Copyright 2000 through life plus 70 years, Ted Moffett.
