The Climate Road to Serfdom in One Graph
By Robert Bradley Jr. -- November 8, 2024
Dr. Faig S Askerov, (self-described as the Former Regulatory Compliance and Environment Director, BP Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey Region, PhD in Petrochemistry Scientist, Lecturer) has presented a graph and definitions that can be used as “Exhibit A” against the climate road to serfdom. At a time of political change against climate alarmism/forced energy transformation, even deep ecologists should question whether CO2 greening is better than wind, solar, battery industrialization.
Greenhouse gas (GHG) calculations
1. Gross GHG Emissions
• Definition: Total emissions generated by an entity (such as a country, company, or individual) without accounting for any offsets or sequestration efforts.
• Example: A factory emits 100,000 tons of CO₂ annually.
2. Net GHG Emissions
• Definition: Emissions after accounting for offsets, carbon removal, or carbon sequestration (e.g., planting trees, carbon capture technologies).
• Formula: Net GHG Emissions = Gross Emissions – (Carbon Offsets + Carbon Sequestration)
• Example: If the same factory invests in reforestation that absorbs 20,000 tons of CO₂, its net emissions become 80,000 tons.
