Replying to Avatar Guy Swann

It really is wild to me that the propaganda has been so strong that people literally think CO2 is bad for the environment. Even people trying to counter the idea, tacitly frame their position in this direction (like but methane is even worse!) to not cause outrage.

CO2 is literally the only reason an environment exists. It is the literal life creator.

It's like demonizing language itself as being "bad for communication."

i think you're misrepresenting things. as far as i understand the claim is not that co2 is bad. it is about the rapid change of co2 in the atmosphere

I hear that CO2 is bad on the daily. I hear people who even disagree with it shifting their frame to allow for “we know it’s bad but…” I see governments explicitly labeling it a pollutant an an ocean of incessant, ideological demonization of it as the worst and most important environmental concern of our time.

I do not believe I am misrepresenting the stance that I hear demonstrated almost every day. Just my experience tho

maybe "co2 is bad" is a simplification for "co2 rising this fast is bad"

I agree "pollutant" is not necessarily the right label, but then again anything that you need can be a "pollutant" if it exists in too high of a quantity
