What is geoscience?

Geoscience (also called Earth Science) is the study of Earth. Geoscience includes so much more than rocks and volcanoes, it studies the processes that form and shape Earth's surface, the natural resources we use, and how water and ecosystems are interconnected. Geoscience uses tools and techniques from other science fields as well, such as chemistry, physics, biology, and math! Read more...

These crazy doomers say its to late to prevent massive global wildfires and heatwaves and flooding and increased severe storm activity (tornadoes, hurricanes, and just catastrophic storms). We need to ignore all these debbie and danny downers and look to how we utilize coal to absorb and sequester tiny fractions of carbon from the atmosphere well with renewables while we otherwise burn coal for energy anyways.
