Scientist at OU weighs ice age CO2 risk and tech views

Brooks

Optimist view on technology and future energy limits

The speaker argues science bears responsibility for evil in a revolt against technology seen in every industrial decade. He remains optimistic, noting weather shifts and food patterns may change as carbon dioxide rises, while pollution effects unfold over decades. He warns health effects may appear only after long delays. Coal will extend though emissions rise and natural gas and oil may run out by 2025.
