Dear Andrew--While I have not yet had time to check out your efforts and
offer thoughts on editing, some ideas for the next effort.
So that you are not just covering the removal of CO2, I would think

Thanks to Sam for all this content. It's not typical climate-change
stuff, so a little unusual for this group.
Here's the wiki i built for it. I hope people will add to and edit it.

It is more complicated than this. However, the reason
that we use rad forcing is that we generally assume
that forcings can be added (as does IPCC). I have looked
at this with forcings that are in the 21st century range.
Within the uncertainties in calculating forcings for
individual items,
Dear Stuart:
The issue is a bit more complicated than Ken indicates:
1. Radiative forcing is measured (well, actually calculated) for the
tropopause. It does make a difference in the response the degree to which
the resulting forcing results in a change in the surface relative to the
I understand the intent to include all greenhouse gases, but the reality is
that while there is a history of emissions control for many gases, there is
really no established history for the active *removal* of all gases. The
simple fact is that unless I am forgetting something I know of zero
There's a proposal on the wiki for CFC destruction using lasers. I
thought it worthy of inclusion. There are probably other techniques
I'm not aware of.

I was somewhat flippant, but my comment holds ...
Tom indicates that for the ranges expected this century, climate effects are
largely in a linear domain, and this seems reasonable to me.
As Mike points out, we know that the climate responds differently to
different patterns and types of
I would stay away from the word scrubbing. It has a very technical
association with scrubbers on smokestacks which traditionally refer to the
use of a wet limestone slurry to address Sox emissions.
I think it's important to keep emissions reductions separate from larger

Ah ha !!!
Let's put a lot more water vapor in the atmosphere, which
will increase OH, and enhance CH4 destruction.
So, what is the GWP for water vapor?
