I was recommending nothing. But since you ask maybe I should recommend a
refresher course in the history of pollution and environmental damage for the
entire world.
And what would this achieve?
It is assumptions such as these, "The Ocean is so huge", The atmosphere is so
big" and "There is so much energy in xyz" that have led to overuse of every
one of these.
On the other hand, [the implications of] fairly precisely known
quantities, such as the solar constant (~1.36 kWm^-2), appear to be
getting ignored.
What does this all mean? Your guess is probably as good as mine.
