On another article, another Freeper referred to a scientist's comment that made a lot of sense. The statement was: CO2 is an indicator of warming- not a cause. Think of a soda left out on a hot day. The soda goes flat very quicky because the CO2 is quickly expelled into the atmosphere, while on a cold day the soda goes flat much slower because it is absorbed at a much slower rate.

Plus last time I checked all these other planets that have massive amounts of C02 in the atmosphere don`t have any plant life.

Plants suck up CO2 and spit out O2....It`s a perfect balance that has been going on for billions of years on earth when the earth with going through a lot worse than a bunch of Chevys driving around..It has allowed the earth to remain oxegen rich through volcanoes, earthquakes, cataclysmic meteor strikes that blotted out the sky a billion times worse than any cars can do.

Even when plant life was brought to a bare minimum, even that wasn`t enough to stop the earth turning into a planet like Venus, which turned into a greenhouse planet from its liquid water evaporating by the way...Before that Venus had an atmosphere much similar to earth, but no life.

This whole global warming crap is ridiculous, it`s like saying plants are spitting out too much O2 (and there are a hell of a lot more plants than cars, people and animals) so we should cut down trees. The only result of more CO2 is more O2. When plants get down to practically nothing, then we should worry, but so far I haven`t seen any trees on strike.

Oh my, look at these poor plants getting stuffed on too much CO2...
