Watch what spotted algore does with his money. I’ll bet a buck that he is quietly removing all his funding for companies that stand to make a bundle over globull warming.

Did you know that a rotting log in a forest releases as much CO2 as is released by burning that log in a fireplace? Only difference is, the process is sped up when burning, which also results in the release of useful energy an opposed to no energy realized by letting the wood rot.

The climate commies will never stop their lies until they accomplish the enslavement of mankind.

Our oceans are having a record crab catch and an expected record salmon run thanks to abundance of plant growth in the ocean. CO2 is a life giving gas.

As I said years ago, innumerable scientific experiments have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that increasing the CO2 levels causes plants to grow faster, which of course reduces the amount of CO2 available. In an effort to spin that into a negative, Duke University published a paper warning that increased CO2 would make poison ivy grow faster.

It does show that only 45% of man's emissions, not 100% as warmers claim, stays in the atmosphere

Not a single warmer that I know of claims that. What many warmers claim is that 100% of the increase in CO2 (since about 1850) is from manmade sources. This is also wrong from a variety of analyses, not the least of which is the fact that natural fluctuations dominate CO2.

For example, CO2 was higher in mid 2006 than in late 2008, a period of thirty months. Granted that period coincides with a seasonal high (mid year) and seasonal low (end of year). But it shows that natural fluctuations outweigh the manmade amounts.

If any warmer claims that 100% of the CO2 increase comes from manmade sources, ask him/her for the math that shows that.

We should be making as much CO2 as possible to feed the plants.

Warmer regions that are currently cooler will be able to produce and grow food. Currently productive areas will be more productive. Bumper crops. Less starving people in the world really sounds great to me. Why does this threat of being able to cure one of the oldest curses to mankind (starvation) panic the liberals?

We should be running CO2 from our power plants into Algae oil growers. Then we would get a double benefit from electrical power from fossil fuels.

Because there's no money in it for ex-vice-presidents with 65 IQs....

Well, for deep green environmentalists, it means that population will not die off, and their will be more development, both of which they see as evil.

“A major tenet of the global warming religion, straight from the Book of Gore, has been that the ability of the earth to handle increasing CO2 emissions is finite and that once the “tipping point” is reached, the earth will warm uncontrollably.”

The earth has been recycling carbon for a very long time, to which carbonaceous sedimentary formations are testimony. Greenhouse gases have been described by meteorologists, long before global warming, as one of many mechanisms by which the atmosphere stays in equilibrium. Goremania would have it that CO2 in the atmosphere acts like an energy sponge, sopping up the long wave radiation that would otherwise be lost to space. CO2 absorbs at some very specific wavelengths in the infra-red spectrum (that’s how it is detected nowadays), but soon re-radiates that energy (not at the same wavelength) as it returns to its original energy level. So it may slow up some energy in that form, hence its greenhouse parity, but by no means hangs on to it. This CO2, being such a minute percentage of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (and the ‘man-made’ portion is maybe 3% of that while H2O is all but ignored), it is almost laughable that it has become the basis of ‘settled’ scientific projections of imminent doom.

Had read somewhere that CO2 being heavier than air sank to ground or sealevel, hence it being taken in by plants and the oceans. This “sinking” in fact made CO2 impossble as a Greenhouse gas.

The warmers having their hockeystick broken rush to find a new scenario. Latest “Warmer Science” now is manmade CO2 acidifying the oceans and methane hydrate released because the oceans warm (the inference is that its human caused) by 5C which in turn greenhouses to another 5C and kills everything.
