Agreed… Amazing how they say global warming is a bad thing. Didn\’t the earth have a tropical climate for thousands of years before? must have been those silly industries and cars they were driving!
Easy solution. Grow more trees or just eliminate people. Takes a long time to grow trees, so the quick fix is to eliminate people. Volunteers??? Suggestion: Let\’s start with the phony scientists! Tree-huggers will be next!
The preceding comments are so stupid and off-point that I feel compelled to comment.
The larger point of the article is: There is a documented close correlation between CO2 levels and global temperatures.* It is uncontrovertible that CO2 levels are increasing.* Whether arithmatically or exponentially isn\’t as significant as the fact that the CO2 levels are rising.* We can and should continue arguing about the cause(s) of the increasing CO2, while taking immediate and sustained actions to reduce global CO2 emissions – irregardless of whether our human activities, especially of the past 200 years, is the driving force of increased CO2 levels.* Global weather patterns are changing rapidly – faster than biological and sociological/ political/economic adaptation.* Bad things will happen to our food supplies and our economic systems – to us – if we do not immediately begin adjusting to the changing global weather patterns.* Raindrops washed away the Rocky Mtns twice according ot the geological record. Each of us is like a raindrop in the sense that individually our impact is not much, but as a whole – across the planet, given enough time, humanity has tremendous impact on the global environment.
Gee, these \”scientists\” have apparently discovered 650,000 YEARS of recorded readings of the CO2 levels. Amazing. Where do I send my tax dollars??
