No dumbass, not because we've addressed the problem, but because Congress, in all their glory, is working hard to defund any and all scientists studying the issue.
Not least among those getting poorer are the observations on Mauna Loa where the longest running measurements of atmospheric CO2 have been taken for over half a century. They put out a Kickstarter-esque call for money earlier this year to keep up their work.
As someone funnier than me noted, this is about as effective as trying to lose weight by smashing your scale.
