Mostly due to our failure to educate, the vast majority have not idea of
history. And no clue of basic science. We have college educated morons.
A prime example is democrat darling, the socialist Alexandria
Ocasio-Cortez. College degree in economics, when she was ask how to pay
for free college and health care, her reply was brilliant, “It’s like
rent ya know, you just pay it.” Her college professors must be so proud.
But I digress.
The overwhelming majority of people think history
is what happened last week. They have no idea about earth history.
Right now today, CO2 levels are at historic record lows. Through the
history of earth CO2 levels have higher, much higher than today.
Actually, the falling CO2 is what lead to the extinction of all the
giant herbivores followed by the giant carnivores during the Pleistocene
Era. As the CO2 levels fell, plant life died. Without the abundant
availability of plants the giant herbivores could not survive. And
without their food supply, the giant carnivores became extinct.
The
labeling of CO2 as a pollutant is pure Junk Science. The truth they
ignore is the planet Earth has survived and life has flourished with the
CO2 levels 15 to 20 times higher than today. Today CO2 levels are .038%
but in the past they have been as high as .68%. And during all those
times LIFE EXISTED. There is one correlation they totally ignore. As CO2
levels rise, more of the earth turns green, with plant life. With the
increased CO2 levels today, we see areas of earth green that were never
green in modern times. As CO2 levels rise, food crops grow bigger,
healthier, and more abundant. Remember your basic science from about
third or fourth grade. Plants convert CO2 to Oxygen to grow. Basic
science, remove the plants food (CO2) and the die. A 1993 review of
scientific greenhouse studies found that a doubling of CO2 concentration
would stimulate the growth of 156 different plant species by an average
of 37%. And not to put on too fine a point, but no plants, no other
life.
When dinosaurs walked the earth the CO2 levels were between Ten Times to
Fifteen Times the CO2 level today. NOT ten to fifteen percent but TEN
to FIFTEEN TIMES what they are today. And if we are to believe the
“global warming scientists” earth was just a flaming sphere where
nothing could live. Because isn’t that exactly what they are saying
today. We only have TEN YEARS to stop CO2 from rising are all life will
perish.
The true irony is they have painted themselves into a
trap. With the sun’s activity falling dramatically, earth is cooling. It
is very possible we could be heading into a severe cooling period.
While the idea that higher CO2 levels would lead to starvation planet
wide. A cooling period much like the “little ice age” would in fact
cause global famine. As we cool, using their logic. To save the earth
shouldn’t try to increase the CO2 level to warm the surface? There is a
got-ya moment.
CO2 as a greenhouse gas is laughable. It may
retain minor amounts of heat but not in sufficient quantities to
overheat the planet. Again, knowing a little science helps. The planet
Mars, temperatures there rarely get above freezing. And yet the Martian
atmosphere is 93.5% CO2, compared to earth at .038%. With that much CO2,
shouldn’t Mars be warmer?
I am going to digress off topic again,
but I believe it is relevant. Much of the impetus driving global
warming and the blaming man is our turning away from faith. Without
faith and without God they are left looking into a mirror. I do not see
science and faith in God as being opposite in any way. They actually
blend together nicely. But, without any faith, their only solution is to
blame themselves. When the fact is, there is no blame, just nature.
They have taught the “Theory of Evolution” for over 100-years. It is
still a theory because there is zero proof it works. Actually there is
more evidence it does not work. But that would be another article.
If
anyone is interested in viewing historic CO2 levels
here is a fairly
good article. The first graph in the article show we are at an all time
low for CO2 concentrations.
