At issue; global warming. We are being told it's caused by CO2. This is simply untrue. Atmospheric CO2 is a result, not a cause, of a warmer climate.Ice cores tell us that in the past earth has had 10-20 times as much carbon dioxide and still gone into a cooling trend. Did the ice ages end because mammoths drove SUVs? The US at several times was tropical and had vast inland seas.BEFORE PEOPLE! One strong possibility is deforestation (rainforests). Think about how much cooler the woods are on a summer day versus a parking lot. Also remember trees remove CO2. If it takes 10 trees 1 day to remove X CO2, how long for 1 tree?Rainforests provide 25 % of the earths oxygen. Forests are being slashed and burned at incomprehensible rates.(110 acres per minute) Imagine 10 Montanas being scorched to dirt EACH YEAR.Not to mention animals and plants,etc. Yet we are being told it's our CO2 that is causing global warming . Who's making the money? Why is the deforestation not in the headlines? more--->

I am not saying that the planet is not in a warming trend. There have been warming and cooling trends forever. I am saying that all the facts are not being disclosed , and that the Global Warming /CO2 issue has become a circus which is preaching misleading data and flat out untruths. There is a lot of money being spent which would better serve the environment if used for real issues without any political adgendas involved.
