Once again, you ignore the most obvious contradiction in your position. It's like you are sticking your fingers in your ears and saying "la la la la I can't hear you".....Just because you refuse to acknowledge that CO2 is an essential compound for all living things, does not make the fact go away. -CO2 is not pollution. -You expel CO2 with every breath you exhale. -Global warming has been proven to be wrong, that is why they changed it to "Climate Change" -Climate change is the norm for this planet and we have little to do with it. -On top of everything, the best way to reduce emissions in energy production is to make the plants and the appliances more efficient. Adding wind and solar plants will barely register.

oh bummer! What about Darwin's theory of evolution? Wont some evolve to benefit from CO2. I remember how DDT would kill 99.7% of the mosquitoes but that .03% would reproduce to become super mosquitoes. Isn't the human race able do do as well as the lowly mosquito? Isn't Darwin the evolution expert? Isn't the darwin theory gospel? Except for human beings and global warming I guess. Whoops! I meant climate change. Climate change! comrade chartseer

We are on our way towards a lifeless planet but we should not rush the process. There has historically been much more CO2 in our atmosphere than exists today. For example, during the Jurassic Period (200 mya), average CO2 concentrations were about 1800 ppm or about 4.7 times higher than today. The highest concentrations of CO2 during all of the Paleozoic Era occurred during the Cambrian Period, nearly 7000 ppm -- about 18 times higher than today. The Carboniferous Period and the Ordovician Period were the only geological periods during the Paleozoic Era when global temperatures were as low as they are today. To the consternation of global warming proponents, the Late Ordovician Period was also an Ice Age while at the same time CO2 concentrations then were nearly 12 times higher than today-- 4400 ppm. According to greenhouse theory, Earth should have been exceedingly hot. Instead, global temperatures were no warmer than today. Clearly, other factors besides atmospheric carbon influence earth temperatures and global warming.
