It says pH levels are changing 100 times faster than natural variability.


The more hysterical their claims the less I believe them. Since CO2 is such a small part of our atmosphere and we contribute such a minuscule percentage of that very small percentage I think hysterics is all this whole thing is about.

I fail to see a causal relationship here. but at least we have Prince Albert II of Monaco supporting it....

the temperature of the planet and CO2 levels are both cyclic. So is the shift of the earth's polarity. Can you imagine the outcry when the poles shift? Humans will be blamed because of all of the magnetic fields we are making through the generation of electricity and since the northern hemisphere has a disproportionate amount of the modernized population, it will clearly be the cause of the polarity shift. Nevermind that the magnetic radiation created by man is miniscule compared to that of the earth. And that we are about 500,000 years past due for a polarity change.

I was having an exchange of ideas with a woman who insisted that there was such a thing as earthquake weather. She insisted that warm weather caused earthquakes. Nevermind that earthquakes originate miles beneath the earth's surface and that transient temperature changes barely penetrate the surface. Go underground 300' and the ambient temperature is pretty much the same year round, even in the harshest extremes. And that's 300'.....not miles. Come to think of it, if global warming is real, that means that we are going to have more earthquakes...shit, I've opened up another can of worms.

For the record, there is absolutely no statistical data to support the idea of "earthquake weather".
