Again, it's not even that simple. What you correctly imply is that you need to do a "total environmental warming impact" study (TEWI). I've done a few. But, they take a lot of work and I'm retired now, so won't be doing one here.
Thanks for a VERY informative post. Statements like that need to be repeated. Group understanding WILL eventually happen.
