do they think at all? or do they just belive what everyone tells them?
People say that CO2 is the main source of "Global Warming", but people have actually researched this, yes - researched, and they concluded that CO2 is not even a toxic pollutant! if anything, it will stimulate the growth of trees and other oxygen producing plants! people say that the amount of trees in America have decreased rapidly, but they just say that without any evidence to support this idea of theirs. There is more trees in America now than there was when Christopher Columbus landed in 1492! Researchers have also found out that if the amount of human activity was to DOUBLE the average temperature would raise .1 degree!
so why do people believe what the liberal media tells them? Just because you see it on the news does not mean that it is true.

trees take in oxygen? wow did you learn anything in science class? trees take in CO2 and produce Oxygen. the more CO2 they have, the more abundant they will be, and the more Oxygen they will produce. whoever said you were smart?

You're right! Anyone who believes that CO2 is a pollutant is crazy. Thanks alot Supreme Court. CO2 is required for the cycle of life.

Of course some nuts will believe anything they hear. Take JJ who believes that CO2 is fatal at 800 ppm, and worries that we now approaching 400 ppm. 800 ppm means that 0.08% of the atmosphere. Of course the actual facts are that CO2 is fatal at 30% concentrations (see attached link.) There is quite a large difference between 30% and 0.08%

Actually, ignoramus, trees can't absorb as much oxygen as you want them to, after a certain amount, they stop absorbing. It's not like the more CO2 you expose them to, the more oxygen they're gonna give you. CO2 is toxic, and if you breathe in more than you're supposed to, you'll die. You're welcome to try it. It won't stimulate growth of any oxygen producing plants. Yeah, since 1880, the average temperature on earth has risen by only .6 degrees. That's a lot! Even though it may seem like a small number.

there is purely no actual info to assist guy-made international warming claims. I advise even the biggest argument, that CO2 reasons the temp to upward push is fake. CO2 follows temp replace. it won't have the ability to be the reason and result! look at historic past. The earth has consistently skilled periodic cyclical and dramatic temperature adjustments way formerly people have been given in contact. in actuality this modern warming type began formerly the commercial age began. This replaced into formerly all of us started pumping out out each and every of the CO2 and pollution that we are doing appropriate now. you should to look up a documentary called the great international Warming Swindle for many extra suggestion. guy-made international warming isn't something extra desirable than an complicated plot to get extra funds and scare the inhabitants into compliance (kinda like the swine flu!) Now all that being suggested, I do have self assurance we could consistently take lots extra desirable care of the earth. I purely sense we could consistently do it because of the fact it extremely is our accountability and we could consistently desire to stay in a healthful and abundant international.

The kind of people that are all upset about global warnming are sheeple that can't think for themselves. The real threat to civilization is overpopulation. How do we solve that? Stop illegal immigration, severely restrict legal immigration to those who have a trade (and I don't mean a ridiculous Business/Political/Arts/Law degree. I mean a trade like carpenter, scientist, doctor, millwright, mechanics, engineering etc. Then all of these people living in countries where they have raped their land and women to the point that they can no longer support themselves should be left alone, and when a sufficient number have died out, then the rest can plant a garden and start over. It works for the rest of the animal kingdom.

CO2 at 800ppmv concentration is lethal to humans in under 3 hours exposure.
so much for your idea that it isn't a toxic pollutant huh??

The only reasons it isn't categorized as a toxic pollutant, is because it would reguire sigificant effort and expense to treat it the same way as "toxic pollutants". And to be considered a "toxin", it must follow a certain guidline of reactions that causes damage to living tissue.
just because it doesn't act like a toxin, does not mean it isn't lethal!

Iodine is handled in a similar way. but i guarantee you, if you eat a few ounces of iodine crystals you aren't going to be claiming it isn't toxic when you call poison control begging them for help.

actually increased CO2 concentration will not stimulate ecosystems as much as you think considering that some organisms use it to produce toxic substances, and it will boost their population at the expense of the organisms that produce most of Earth's oxygen,oxygenic photsynthetic bacteria(not plants). The plants increased CO2 concentrations promote, are invasive species and poison ivy type plants.

currently the concentration of CO2 is at nearly 400ppmv 1/2 of the lethal concentration to humans in under 3 hours exposure. 100 years ago, it was under 300 ppmv.
if CO2 concentration were rising at the same modest rate, then there wouldn't be any problems for a few centuries. but the rate of concentration growth has increased.

So if global warming doesn't realy exist, CO2 concentrations are still a big problem!

Plants do take in oxygen, along with CO2, it's an undeniable fact. Denying it makes you look retarded in the eyes of anyone who has passed a biology class. You are right about CO2 not being toxic, but that's beside the point in the global warming problem. CO2 traps in heat, which is one of the big causes of climate change. Where is your evidence against global warming? Where are your sources?

To simply say that emissions are having no effect on the environment or our health seems a little stupid. Look at supply and demand gas and eletcricity ect, have become a necessity, that equals a demand so the price is set at whatever the market will pay and they get rich by bleeding us or we could decrease the demand and they will lower there prices or go out of business so think about it who are the people that do not believe in global warming

Although trees do take in CO2 and expel O2 there are less trees now than ever before. I would suggest you do more research like open a book and stop listen to just some ignorant oil and lumber company CEOs. Whoever said you were smart was more stupid than you.

YOU have to do some research.
I don't believe it because people tell me it's real, I believe it because I KNOW it's real.
CO2 is not a pollutant, it still traps heat. It will not stimulate the growth of plants, Oxygen does. Of course, Plants take CO2 in, but it does not stimulate growth.

There is more trees?
Take some grammar lessons, buddy.

You are actually confuse CO is the greenhouse gas we are concerned with not CO2.

Carbon monoxide cannot be metabolized by plant and turned back into oxygen. Carbon monoxide does a number of nasty little things. it is actually highly toxic to people (it binds to hemoglobin making them incapable of transporting O2) as a side note, Carbon monoxide inhibits photosynthesis and can effective suffocate a plant as well.

Carbon Dioxide is fairly benign, we breath it out, animals breath it out, plants "breath it in" Carbon dioxide is essential to the earths balance. It is the excess dosing of Carbon monoxide that is the issue.
