Absolutely!!! The “Dark Side” has nefarious intent and are trying to “program” the sheeple to do their bidding.

And the envirowackos, most of them, don’t even know this little known scientific fact.

The average CO2 content of our atmosphere is one third of one percent.

The average CO2 content of our atmosphere is one third of one percent.

Our effect and and contribution is negligile. Here is more detail on that:

"Total human CO2 emissions primarily from use of coal, oil, and natural gas and the production of cement are currently about 5.5 GT C per year (giga tons of carbon per year). A recent update says 8.6 GT, which probably includes the usual stretching. To put these figures in perspective, it is estimated that the atmosphere contains 750 GT C; the surface ocean contains 1,000 GT C; vegetation, soils, and detritus contain 2,200 GT C; and the intermediate and deep oceans contain 38,000 GT C. Each year, the surface ocean and atmosphere exchange an estimated 90 GT C; vegetation and the atmosphere, 60 GT C; marine biota and the surface ocean, 50 GT C; and the surface ocean and the intermediate and deep oceans, 100 GT C."

Thats about 1% (using their likely exaggerated numbers)of all contributions to atmosopheric CO2. Knowing that CO2 is no different from any source then we are now to believe we live on 1% threshold. Also, we know natures contribution varies and natural disasters such as volcanoes will spew more co2 into the air than we could ever in short amount of time. The 1% would have relegated earth to a dustbowl long ago if it were true,its absolute non sense So ridiculous that only a "properly educated" person could possibly believe it. Granted the fraud has answers for this to but those answers are as idiotic as this one. The problem with arguing AGW is that there are so many fabrications they have created that answering only one of them doesn't slow down the fiction train .

I think you are off by a factor of 10 times too high. 350ppm / 1,000,000 = 0.035%, one third of one tenth of one percent.
