Your editorial entitled "Mitigating climate change" was right on target (OGJ, Oct. 19, 2009, p. 18). The idea of spending $10.5 trillion on projects with essentially no potential return on investment is ludicrous.
A much better approach for reducing greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide) would be to plant billions of carbon-eating trees. Such a program would benefit all of the agricultural schools in the world and would provide employment for low-skilled workers everywhere.
Additionally, it could put ACORN to work on something worthwhile.
