- JohnFen 3y agoToo little would be bad, yes, but too much is also bad. We can reduce CO2 by a huge amount and still have more than the amount needed for a temperate world. We are so far over the desired greenhouse gas levels that it's a crisis and reducing it is necessary if we're to continue being able to live in relative comfort. We're not even near the ballpark of having so little greenhouse gas that this would be a worry.
