Don’t be obtuse. CO2 is a IR active gas. The more there is in the atmosphere the more heat is retained.

Millions of years ago there was a lot more in the atmosphere than there is now. The planet was basically a giant algae pond. It absorbed the CO2 and after a massive die off sunk and was buried. Time, pressure, and heat turned it into petroleum.

We are literally pulling that CO2 back out of the ground and putting it back into the atmosphere. This heats up the planet and impacts climate and weather patterns. There is no denying that, the only debate is what we do about it.

Back-up! And with facts, bless you! Haha

Shiny object! Look over here.

Don’t care. I have no interest in arguing about the price of tea in China. Must less promoting human tribalism enforcing dueling sides where people aren’t engaged in problem solving, only winning for their “side”.

The planet is getting hotter and that is going to have impacts. We are going to have to deal with that and so far we haven’t come up with a engineering solution to pull more CO2 out of the atmosphere and the powers that be only solution is to emit less which is only digging the hole slower, not filling it in.

Denying the problem exists or allowing the powerful to use it to promote a agenda doesn’t solve anything.

We shouldn’t shit where we eat..

You can't change someones mind.

They have to do it themselves.

If it's a foundational belief, it's really hard to change.

It taps into our sense of belonging, psychological security and survival.

It's a fundamental cocktail.

'The willingness and ability to revise one's worldview in response to new evidence or experiences are key aspects of personal growth, intellectual development, and openness to learning.'

Thanks for trying though, but these guys won't budge.

Plus won't provide any facts or insight to change our minds.

That ends the discussion.

Agreed. One of the biggest signs of intelligence is the ability to admit you are wrong. But it is very difficult at times for your stated reasons.

😆 who told you that? CO2 is plant food. The more CO2, the faster plants grow. Dinosaur survived 6,000 ppm, 20X higher than it is today, explain that.

and that is BEFORE the ice age. If CO2 traps heat, why did we have an ice age? 😆

You fail to understand that we are not dinosaurs, lol.

The average temperature on earth is 14 degrees celcius.

Ast the time of the dinosaurs it was between 16 and 25.

You fail to realize the impact this rise will have on our way of life.

Ice ages can start by comet impacts and massive vulcanos.

>the only debate is what we do about it.

There is no debate about it - global socialism. One world government for Klaus’ sustainable fourth Reich.

That cohort is the only one who thinks it’s a problem and the only one proposing “solutions”. If you think humans can change the climate - when even shit beyond earth’s atmosphere affects it - then you have one path to follow and that is Net Zero and being part of the carbon they want to reduce.

We know they’re nothing more than a Malthusian death cult because they refuse to embrace nuclear energy, there is no “Manhattan Project” or “Space Race” scale attempt to do something, they just want to make you eat bugs and live in pods and sterilise your children.

Sad that otherwise intelligent people continue to fall for it.
