Plant Trees

That can work but only if you bury them later, rather deep.

Jesus, I work in the chemicals industry, even a few PPM is huge.  We have chemicals we mix together, nothing happens.  Inject a few ppm of a certain catalyst, or sometimes a few parts per BILLION, and wham !  You get a reaction, and new chemicals. 

Per your 1 oz to 78.....put one oz of water in 78 gallons of gasoline and let me know how that goes (unfiltered to your engine). 

we are not talking about a chemical reaction

we are talking about the ability to retain the heat generated from the sun

Either way, your premise that "120 PPM" doesn't seem like much is quite preposterous.  

I think we're smart enough to realize that like any good potential crisis, we recognize that many politicians are using this as a power grab to exert their will.  For guys like us, we know that curbing GHG (green house gas) emissions means we won't be able to buy gasoline as cheap or as plentiful, nor use natural gas for our home, and we probably won't be able to have everyday conveniences like cheap plastic packaging for food, beverages, etc.  We also know that the truly rich won't change a thing about their lives, they'll still have their private jets and yachts, and that doesn't sit well.  

Both things can be true.

and maybe it is but adding 1 oz to 78 gallons to help it retain heat seems like a stretch

but Id be the first to tell you how unqualified I am in that field

Im not going to run for President over it

Its just a personal thought

1 oz of water in 78 gallons of fuel isn't going to cause a problem in my Chevy truck

We've got an atmosphere made up of numerous gasses at different temperatures and pressures at different layers, of which the percentages of said gasses are being altered by us (as little or as much as you want to acknowledge), but it's not a chemical reaction?
Perhaps not by definition, but this specification screams "nuh uh" rather than being a genuine reason to resist the scientific consensus.

No, it's not.  A chemical reaction by definition requires some compound to be converted into another compound (or element).  Changing a mixture is not that.

Definitions are important when available and clear cut.
