Maybe what humanity needs to do is pick an individual or organization--this Professor Lehmann, say--and all send as much money as we can possibly afford to them so that they can undertake projects like biochar carbon sequestration on their own. Government, which is what we're supposed to use for large-scale projects, obviously isn't going to help in time, so we need to start doing it on our own somehow.

Very funny, Perlstein, except not (not Rick but the real ads and speeches). These are dangerous people.
