There are, but the reality is there are none that will get us anywhere near containing the CO2 issue without devastating the global economy(which is what that fact list was mostly pointing out). I'm not saying we shouldn't be doing things and it is hopeless, but our current technology doesn't allow us to get anywhere close to solving the issue. Sadly large scale geoengineering may be our best hope. Which is kind of terrifying in itself.
