Ultimately, the message conveyed by Moore is renewable technology is not enough to save our planet from climate change and the only way forward is for the human race to slow down. What are the limitations of renewable technologies? Sadly, as reported in this study , the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) released by 267 artificial (i.e.

For example, the ongoing debate over the impact of certain pesticides in agriculture , greenhouse gas emissions are often a battle between the science and industry's attempts to muddy the science and government lobbying to roll back legislation (2). Typically used in conjunction with “greenhouse gas” but some emissions are not GHGs.
