Don't forget CO2 is NOT pollution, it is a vital atmospheric gas, without it all life on Earth would perish, and it's currently (in the current epoch) at some of the lowest levels ever recorded. If it drops below 150ppm, it will become almost impossible for plant life to continue to live anywhere on the surface, below 200ppm will cause massive desertification as plants in arid areas will not be able to get enough CO2 without losing too much water.
Pollution is bad and should be stopped wherever practical and minimized as much as is possible. But, CO2 is not pollution. It is a product of combustion, but so is water. It's just that they weren't insane enough to try to calcify water as "pollution".
If we wanted to do the world a favor, we should be using nuclear power stations to convert massive limestone deposits into liberated CO2 in the atmosphere, at least until we reached 1000 - 1200ppm. This would be optimal for plant growth and would go some way (only a tiny way) to reversing the massive carbon sequestration performed by 500 million years of calcifying Ocean life (corals, shell fish, etc). This would not make the world hot, because CO2 does not control the temperature. But it would massively increase crop yields and plant growth around the world. Life would thrive.
But, but, what about our beachfront property that will somehow be underwater?
No, really. I think the intent is to push us back into a further iceage (We are still in one) to remove a massive amount of the human population over a few decades/hundreds of years and to "reset". Mostly to just consolidate power to a few small groups of influential and wealthy people/families at the top.
The "peasants" have gotten too powerful over the last 2-300 years and must be "taken care of".
