    It is only two years since we passed through the 400 ppm level and it appears that the rate of increase is accelerating.

    Ignorance is Donald Trump's finest quality.

    OMG IT WENT UP 0.28 PARTS PER MILLION

    HOLY ****!

    Wait...

    ...what does that even mean?

    Oh right...

    ...it means jack ****.

    Its pretty funny how one measurement taken at one point in the world is enough to convince these AGW nutjob wakjob moonbats of some "vast global Right-Wing Russian climate change conspiracy".

    But...

    ...its not as funny as their belief that taxation and wealth redistribution can "fix" something that has been doing its own thing for 4.5 billion years.

    They're too busy zig-zagging around the ocean according to Donald Trump's latest whim.

    since 400ppm was the alleged tipping point/point of no recovery, there is no need for Trump to do anything. It is already too late.....unless you want to admit that the models that were right before are wrong now in which case you are inviting criticism that the models now may be wrong too....

    CO2 is bad we need to stop it, lol! Or not and just live your life like a normal person.


    Have you ever considered what if there was no internet and psuedo-scientists couldn't scare people with doom and gloom science? I can't believe the main spokesperson for climate change is still Bill Nye the bowtie wearing science guy.

    Models?
    I made model when I was a kid.......Then I grew up.
    Models aren't real.
    I don't want to change my entire lifestyle based on something that isn't real.

    I don't want to change my entire lifestyle based on anything real or imagined.....unless of course it is the real winning Powerball ticket, in which case I would settle for some modifications around the fringes.

    I'm guessing you didn't join in the March for Science humans are destroying the earth march either. Isn't it weird how Hollywood stars and Biill Nye chide us for not recycling while they jet around the planet on their private planes? Think of the CO2 emissions jetting Leo Di Caprio to his worldwide environmental conferences.

    Good. 0.04% is far too close to the bottom of the natural range of 0.02% to 0.7% for decent crop, grassland and forest growth. We can do much better! If we doubled CO2 it would likely eliminate the need for chemical fertilizers, wouldn't that be great?

    I'm a little unsure why you'd make such a thread if you clearly have no intention of even attempting to change minds and bridge differences.

    You realize that your opposition usually are sincere in their beliefs, and aren't just trying to ruin your day for fun... Right? Because recognition of this is kinda a precondition of discussion.

    Or did you just want to come in here and have some fun verbally combating your opposition? If so, why drag such an important issue through the mud for your amusement?

    I recycle my plastics as well as keeping my electricity bill's level pay around $45 a month even at the userous rates of $0.18 cents a kWh.. Beyond that they can eat cheese.

    0.28 PPM increase measured at one zone that just happens to be a frickin volcano.

    Yea, get your salt a' flowin' cause Trump isn't interested in using AGW hysteria as an excuse for the wealth redistribution that drives more people to the permanent underclass.

    Hey how much Leftist AGW activism is going on in South American and Africa?

    You know 99% those guys don't give a **** about your AGW fantasy, right?

    Oh but we won't be criticizing them will we ...cause ...ya know ...Black Brown and Muslim.

    I love the 410.28 ppm

    0.00041028 CO2

    You can't detect the difference between 410 and 410.28 ppm until you get to the 7th decimal point!

    We now have the ability to handle more plants. Wonderful news but not related to Trump at all. It started up when Obama was president.
