Another bookmark. This needs to be made as public as possible.

Excellent. This is a message that needs to be spread far and quickly. Especially in light of the recent announcement that someone has invented a way to turn CO2 into useless rocks, forever removing that essential CO2 from the biomass.

We need to be thinking about how to stop the natural process of CO2 levels dropping, a process which will lead to the extinction of life on earth long before the sun goes dim, not devising schemes to hurry it up.

CO2 IS PLANT FOOD FOR GOD’S SAKE!!! ELIMINATE CO2 AND THE PLANTS DIE!!

He sent it to you last week after writing it in March 2015? Why the delay?

This is a post on the Blog Watts Up With That. It is a summary of a paper published elsewhere. The author was communicating with the author of the blog, not me personally.

I tell my children that the land we live on (currently dry) was alternately an ocean and dry land 5 times in the last 109 million years. Be suspicious of people telling you tales about ‘man made’ climate change.

Ya Think?

I find it interesting that man came along just in time to save life on the planet. One might almost think there was a plan involved...

For years I have been arguing that even if a new source of limitless clean energy were found that the environmentally responsible course of action would be to dig up all the coal, peat and oil and burn it anyway. Once burned it becomes pure biomass to sustain life on Earth.

Who can say if the extinction of the mega-fauna was not actually caused by decreasing CO2, forcing slower plant growth thus depriving the huge beasts of the food they needed? This article supports my theory, but when I express it people look for the phone number of the nearest whacky ward.

A reknown Merry Prankster and early Whole Earth guy agrees

Brand is a treasure in my estimation
