I'll repeat my metaphor. If I go on a diet... In the metaphor 'I' mirrors green technologies. 'global population health' mirrors total global emissions. If I go on a diet and lost weight, that is no trick. I have lost weight. That isn't invalidated by the rest of the world getting fatter. If I put solar panels on my roof I will lower my co2 emissions. That isn't invalidated by you rolling coal. I agree it's bad that co2 emissions are increasing but that doesn't mean that the proposed solution is a trick.
