If you buy a $5 lottery ticket it'll be have almost no correlation to your savings account balance - your rent, utilities, and food have way more impact. Pay your $1000 rent and wow your savings goes down a lot.

Yet after a lifetime of buying lottery tickets you're down maybe $50k. That's real money even though it had basically no effect on your bank account at any time.

From glancing at it this seems to be the paper; ocean temps go up more CO2 increase, down less CO2 increase, but it doesn't address the lifetime of lottery tickets. The CO2 we put in the air has gone somewhere. It's not alchemy.
