CO2 Isn't A Pollutant

Warmist gives advice for Family Holiday Survival: 12 Ways To Deal With That Climate Change Denier

This is how the alarmists in the article advise their followers to address the argument ‘CO2 isn’t a pollutant’ when they encounter it.

“Their underlying logic is that you can never have too much of a good thing – ask them if they realize that’s what they’re arguing, then give them your best scornful school teacher stare.

Too much of anything can be dangerous, hence the phrase “too much”. You can even be killed by drinking too much water.”

‘Too much of anything can be dangerous’

So how much CO2 is too much? Blank out. No data given. Very scientific. Sure to convince a skeptic. There are roughly 400 ppm (parts per million) CO2 in the ambient air in 2014. Is that too much? How about 4000 ppm? Sounds like a lot. Would that turn the planet into an oven, uninhabitable for living things?

CO2 is rising by 2ppm per year. If we are to believe geoscientists CO2 has been at least as high as 4000 ppm in the geological past. There was no tipping point, no runaway global warming that made the planet uninhabitable. CO2 is not the bogeyman under the bed. It is not the hand on the oven dial.

How many years to reach 4000 ppm at 2ppm growth per year? 2000? And 4000 ppm WON’T kill us all. Mother Nature has already performed that experiment.

At the current rate of fossil fuel use how many years till we run out? 1000 if we continue to use coal. Less when oil and gas run out because coal use, if still permitted, will increase. Everyone knows that as the supply of fossil fuels runs down prices will escalate. People will seek substitutes for fossil fuels long before they are exhausted. Perhaps Molten salt or thorium nuclear reactors will become a replacement for electrical generation.

If after 1000 years we have no more fossil fuels and the level of CO2 is only 2000 ppm which WON’T kill us all does anyone see a justification for the global warming hysteria? Are end time scares a worry?  Is there a problem? Is there a problem other than in the minds of those who think there is a problem?

Happy New Year — Prepare for End Times!? Climate Change Worse Than We Thought, Likely To Be ‘Catastrophic Rather Than Simply Dangerous’

End Times! Slate Mag. Predicts Climate Doom! ‘Millions will die; still more will be displaced; nations and economies will teeter at the edge of disaster’

Forget Christmas Cheer, it’s End Times!? Scientists: ‘Here’s How Earth Could Really End’ — Cite ‘global warming’ as ‘the biggest threat of all!’

Not in my world. The numbers don’t add up to disaster or danger. The planet is fine and so are we.

Billions of dollars are being wasted on the study of a non-existent problem. Those billions could have been spent on real problems like poverty, disease and famine or to shore up human defenses in places where extreme weather tends to occur. The people of the here and now are suffering for no visible benefit. Can we sue the scientists, politicians, environmentalists and media who have misled us about the dangers of climate change? Can we get our money back? Will the insanity stop?

Or will the MMCC circus continue? My money but not my heart is on the continuation of the nonsense BECAUSE so much has been invested in it. Too risky for the plug to be pulled now. Everyone who stumps for the global warming/climate change cause will look as stupid as they really are. Who wants that? Not the attendees at the annual Conferences of the Parties of the UNFCCC that’s for sure! Is this a cynical opinion? Is it justified?

You be the judge.

CO2 is clean and green.

CO2, an invisible trace gas essential to life on Earth, is plant food. We exhale CO2 and help to feed the flora. In return they slip us oxygen of which we are rather fond in a mutually beneficial and amicable symbiotic relationship. From this evil comes?

We owe CO2 an apology.
