It takes a special kind of stupid to change the definition of "pollutant" so that it doesn't include CO2 for purely partisan reasons. Whether or not it is toxic at these levels sort of depends on what type of organism you are. For humans, no. But for many organisms in the oceans, it is. Not immediately fatal, but it is impacting their ability to survive.

And that is only if you consider the direct effects. The more indirect effects, like a warming climate because of it throws a wider net. Yeah, yeah. I know. In the past levels were far higher. But humans and most of the other animals that live now, didn't live then and vice versa. So that is a particularly stupid argument. Shorty seems to like that argument. Which should give you a clue.
