The destructiveness of extreme weather is one of the biggest stories of our time. When it comes to fire, drought and floods, we spend a lot of time showing you the effects of climate change. But it's also important to talk about the causes.
That is why CBS is making it a priority to report on climate change with "On the Dot" with David Schechter. In this ongoing reporting project, we will take you on a journey to discover how humans are changing the Earth and how the Earth is changing us.
As each day passes, an invisible problem is creating more danger for people on Earth. That invisible problem is carbon dioxide, and too much of it in the atmosphere is what drives climate change. Carbon dioxide comes from the fossil fuel energy we use, the vehicles we drive and the products we make. And according to NASA, people have raised the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere by 50% since the beginning of the 18th century.
"I think this is our main social environmental challenge for humanity, is how to live on this planet so that not only the benefits that we've enjoyed of a stable climate, of access to fresh water, of you know, not having fires in our neighborhood, that our children and our children's children have those same benefits," said Dr. Eugene Cordero, a climatologist at San Jose State University. "And I think we should be very, very concerned about this."
On future episodes of "On the Dot" we will continue to explore the problem of climate change and what we can do about it, looking at extreme weather, fire, drought and floods.

The answer is more flora and it’s already happening. The planet knows how to take care of itself.
Does the article explain how the change in CO2 is a lagging indicator?
did they explain why there has been very little warming?
Solar eclipse 2017: How much did the temperature change during the eclipse? (non-FR; 8.22.17)
Also, is it any surprise that nighttime temperatures typically keep dropping in various places until shortly after sunrise?

With THIS MANY authors, it must be true! /S
Born in ‘61, South Dakota. I know EXTREME weather. This ain’t it.
WAKE UP!!!!
Why do people waste their lives spreading lies such as the imaginary “climate crisis”? I guess it pays well.
421 parts per million... per million... roughyl .0005% of the atmosphere...
ugh.
these people lie through omission.
A VERY subtle problem. So subtle that it cannot be detected, only believed in.
Since CO2 is soluble in water and the oceans cover a majority of the Earth's surface, the oceans sequester more CO2 than any other CO2 sink.
Because of the inverse solubility of CO2 with temperature, the colder the oceans get, the more CO2 they can absorb.
Conversely, when the oceans get warmer, they expel CO2.
Atmospheric CO2 therefore follows global temperatures, it does not cause them.
You can see the yearly global atmospheric CO2 fluctuation as the oceans warm and cool with the seasons in the NOAA graph below.
The "settled science" that CO2 causes "climate change" is therefore criminal sophistry.
I’m sure humans are affecting the global climate. I’m also sure the impact is miniscule, immeasurable and irrelevant. In fact, I would expect that our large cities and asphalt paving in modern societies around the world would affect the climate more than CO2, especially considering the miniscule amount that our contribution from energy usage adds to the already miniscule amount of CO2 that is in the atmosphere.
We are the most versatile and adaptable species ever recorded on this planet. A slow rise in temperature of 1 degree average every 100 years, is plenty of time for humans to adapt. And by the way, it hasn’t been 1 degree per year.
So, no. The weather is not getting more extreme. It just gets reported more dramatically than ever before as media outlets compete to dramatize more than their competitors to bring in viewers and clicks.
“The Invisible Problem:...”
This part is correct. It is INVISIBLE!
IT DOESN’T EVEN EXIST!
Even IF it did, there is NOTHING puny Hu-mans could do about it.
Even IF they could, what would be the unforeseen negative consequences of lets say GIANT umbrellas in the sky to block the sun?
PURE IDIOCY
(sorry, is it hu-they now?)
corrections....
“It hasn’t yet been 1 degree PER 100 Years yet.”
Add....
And where is the sea level rise we were promised?
Carbon dioxide levels have been far higher in the past during periods of lower temperatures. As stated above, CO2 levels lag global temperatures by decades and centuries. They are not a significant driver of atmospheric temperatures. Actual measurements of the green house effect of CO2 documented by the IPCC III Report on the Climate shows that it acually has less radiation blocking effect at the concentrations increase due to the coupled nature of the atmosphere with water vapor and clouds.
Read Mark Morano’s “The Politically Incorrect Guide to Climate Change” to get a thorough debunking of the climate propaganda presented in this news story.
I'm glad that the 'science is settled,' otherwise I might be inclined to believe other experts who think that global warming will bring with it an overall lowering of our winds, making windmills less useful.
Global ‘Stilling’: Is Climate Change Slowing Down the Wind?As carbon dioxide levels rise and the Earth’s poles warm, researchers are predicting a decline in the planet’s wind speeds. This ‘stilling’ could impact wind energy production and plant growth and might even affect the Gulf Stream, which drives much of the world’s climate.

They make the link, because . . . ?
-Pull it out of their Arse
-Orange Man Bad
-”Science”
just more Clown World
This is written like they haven’t been telling us CO2 is the most lethal substance in the universe for the past 40 years.
