Now, after seeing the volume of participants and the importance that the IDNYC Program has been in the City of New York, I believe it is time for New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo to also
do something of this magnitude for all residents of New York State.

This is one
of the number one reasons it's hard to take «alternative» practitioners seriously, despite their good intentions: That is to say that we have such great control over our bodily pH. We don't (unless you were to, say, eat a box
of baking soda or
something), and the body regulates this very well, as a drop or gain
of tenths
of magnitude simply would result in coma and death.
A gift
of this size and
magnitude hardly has precedent in the Spanish art world (though Anthony D'Offay

Within economics modelling, attempts to model the feedback mechanisms that occur in the real economy are also really difficult — we know, for example, that investment in new technologies will act as an incentive for the existing technologies it hopes to substitute to become more efficient (the sailing ship effect — i.e. in the 50 years after the introduction
of the steam ship, sailing ships made more efficiency improvements than they had in the previous 3 centuries) but how to quantify
something even as simple as this is not easy BUT we have learnt a few ways to give sensible (order
of magnitude) figures with time lags, the learning by
doing effect and phased - in substitution effects based on massive amounts
of data.
Clearly
something else other than CO2 has been the predominant cause
of the warming 1910 - 1940, and climate models
do not include this effect since they don't reproduce the
magnitude of the warming.
Social welfare campaigners often overstate the extent
of poverty, hoping that appreciation
of the
magnitude of the problem will spur the public or politicians into
doing something about it.
What I
do know is that the figures you mention that are
magnitudes greater are (similar to problem 1) the result
of the current heat content / temperature
of the oceans and not
of a forcing from
something that changed the amount
of SW radiation reaching the surface.
