Rising CO2 levels on a Hawaiian volcano??? RUN!

Oh wait, it’s an island. They can’t run very far... Earth currently has increased volcanic activity around the edges of the Pacific Plate. Tell the alarmists to learn science, it really irritates them to hear those words from us knuckle-dragging troglodytes.

Yes. From weather.com: A chilly weather pattern for May set more cold temperature records in parts of the East into midweek. Numerous record lows were already set Mother's Day weekend, and an area of low pressure wrung out strange May snow in the interior Northeast. The record-breaking cold weather was from a southward plunge of the jet stream in place to the east of the Rockies. That allowed a pipeline of cold air to dive southward from Canada into parts of the central and eastern United States. All-time May record lows were set Saturday morning, May 9, in Binghamton, New York (24 degrees); Fort Wayne, Indiana (23 degrees); Indianapolis (27 degrees); New York's LaGuardia Airport (36 degrees) and Jackson, Kentucky (30 degrees). State College, Pennsylvania (27 degrees), New York's JFK Airport (34 degrees) and London, Kentucky (28 degrees), tied their all-time May records Saturday morning. According to the National Weather Service, prior to Saturday, the latest spring date Fort Wayne, Indiana, plunged to 23 degrees was April 20, 1897, and 1904, almost three weeks earlier in the spring. Nashville, Tennessee, also plunged to its coldest low so late in spring Saturday morning, beating its previous record-latest 35-degree low by three days. Washington's Reagan National Airport (37 degrees) dipped to its coldest May low since 1966. Peoria, Illinois, had its latest spring freeze since 1971. Van Wert, Ohio, plunged to 18 degrees Saturday morning, the first time it had dropped into the teens in May in 127 years of records. Wind chills were as cold as the teens, even upper single digits, in parts of the East Saturday morning. Boston's temperature only rose to 44 degrees Saturday afternoon, setting a new record-cold high temperature for May 9. New daily record lows for May 10 were set Sunday morning in Trenton, New Jersey (31 degrees); Richmond, Virginia (32 degrees); Shreveport, Louisiana (47 degrees); and Wilmington, North Carolina (41 degrees). Boston and Providence, Rhode Island, both tied their daily record lows of 34 degrees Sunday morning. New daily record lows for May 11 were set Monday morning in Bismarck, North Dakota (24 degrees – tie), International Falls, Minnesota (21 degrees), and Columbia, Missouri (36 degrees). Daily record lows were tied or broken on Tuesday morning, May 12, in International Falls, Minnesota (18 degrees), Rochester, New York (30 degrees, tied), Columbus, Ohio (32 degrees), Dayton, Ohio (32 degrees), Wilmington, North Carolina (45 degrees, tied). On May 12, both Cape Girardeau, Missouri (54 degrees), and Paducah, Kentucky (56 degrees), both had their coldest day so late in the season since 1981. On May 13, Rochester, New York, had its coldest May morning in 41 years. Snow Notables Pittsburgh reported a trace of snow both on May 8 and May 9, the first consecutive May days of snow there in 97 years.Detroit topped them, recording at least a trace of snow five straight days, a record such streak for May in the Motor City. The previous streak set 80 years ago was only three straight days. And, as noted by National Weather Service-Charleston, West Virginia, meteorologist Nick Webb, Snowshoe, West Virginia, set its record 24-hour May snowfall in 45 years of records. Elkins, West Virginia, also set a new 24-hour May snow record, picking up 1.5 inches of snow on May 8.This forecast prompted the National Weather Service office in Caribou, Maine, to issue its first May winter storm warning in at least 15 years. Rare May lake-effect snowbands and snow squalls spread across the Great Lakes and interior Northeast on Saturday. Overpasses were snow-covered in parts of western Pennsylvania, according to live cams. Graupel mixed in across parts of the Interstate 95 corridor. Parts of upstate New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine picked up 3 to 6 inches of snow, with up to 14 inches in eastern Maine. One location near the Vermont-New York border northeast of Albany at an elevation of 1,300 feet reported 1 foot of new snow Saturday morning. Light snow accumulations were reported in parts of western and central Massachusetts and the Litchfield Hills of northern Connecticut. https://weather.com/forecast/regional/news/2020-05-07-mothers-day-weekend-record-cold-snow-bombogenesis-extreme-pattern

The data shows how much more ambitious efforts need to be in order to stop heating up our planet... — Wow. Even destroying the global economy is not sufficient to stop global warming.

Yet they say "much more ambitious efforts need to be in order!"

An up to date chart of CO2 levels. Plants become more efficient at using water up to 1500 ppm . This slow increase of CO2 has resulted in more plant growth world wide.

Obvious to most Freepers, the Global Warming scam is just another item the left is using to scare people in their unending quest for ultimate power.

I’m east of Albany and 2300’ elevation. At least we only got 4” or I’d be tempted to stick my head in the oven.

So we can’t let those evil cars back on the road...

Since motor vehicle accidents result in over 6,000 per day suffering injuries or disabilities, and the economic and societal harm from crashes amounting to a whopping $871 billion in a single year, and about 40,000 deaths a year, thus 400,000 in 10 years- far more than any virus - then based upon the logic behind the Covid Captivity, then requiring a garage-in-place policy except for essential travel which requires a 6 car length (steel distancing) is fitting. Or bumper cars.

I don’t know, it has been really cold where I live since the pandemic took hold. I’m sure it’s because of the reduced traffic.

No,

The record-breaking cold weather was from a southward plunge of the jet stream in place to the east of the Rockies. That allowed a pipeline of cold air to dive southward from Canada into parts of the central and eastern United States.

The jet stream and surface weather pattern in play over Mother's Day weekend, 2020, leading to record cold and some late-season snow for some.

During the Jurassic era the CO2 levels were 400 times higher than they are today. There were lush jungles that could sustain 100-ton dinosaurs. The biomass of the planet was at a record high. The Earth was never more alive than it was then.

CO2 levels today are about 0.04% (400 parts per million), which is just enough for plants to survive. If it drops to 150 PPM or lower plants will starve and die worldwide and render 90% of all species extinct (which has also happened before).

More CO2 improves crop yield, increases forestation, and has many other benefits.

Romans 5:8 says, “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Before we were even born, God sent His only Son, Jesus, to die on our behalf to give us the opportunity for eternal life. This amazing gift comes to us because of His wonderful grace toward us: “It is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast” (Ephesians 2:8–9). We don’t have to earn His love; we simply accept it. https://www.gotquestions.org/does-Jesus-love-me.html

18 Bible Verses about Lake Of Fire

Revelation 20:14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.

Revelation 20:10 And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are also; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

Revelation 21:8 But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
Revelation 20:15 And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

Revelation 19:20 And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.

Matthew 18:8 “If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it from you; it is better for you to enter life crippled or lame, than to have two hands or two feet and be cast into the eternal fire.

Mark 9:47-48 If your eye causes you to stumble, throw it out; it is better for you to enter the kingdom of God with one eye, than, having two eyes, to be cast into hell, where THEIR WORM DOES NOT DIE, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED.

Matthew 25:46 These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power,

Matthew 13:42 and will throw them into the furnace of fire; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Revelation 20:13-15 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds. Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.

2 Peter 2:4 For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment;

Nahum 1:6 Who can stand before His indignation? Who can endure the burning of His anger?
His wrath is poured out like fire And the rocks are broken up by Him.

Deuteronomy 4:24 For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God.

Jeremiah 4:4 “Circumcise yourselves to the LORD And remove the foreskins of your heart,
Men of Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem, Or else My wrath will go forth like fire And burn with none to quench it, Because of the evil of your deeds.”

Malachi 3:2 “But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire and like fullers’ soap.

Matthew 25:41 “Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels;

Luke 16:23 In Hades he lifted up his eyes, being in torment, and *saw Abraham far away and Lazarus in his bosom.

I am agnostic concerning religion; am I going to burn in the lake of fire forever...?

That is your choice just as it is to be on this pro-God forum. There are opposites, and there is eternity, and by rejecting God-given truth and morality from your own conscience at time is in essence disobeying God, and means you need His mercy and forgiveness. And as "the Father sent the Son to be the Savior of the world" (1 John 4:14) then you need to repent and receive Him. Refusal to do so manifests that you do not want to be with Him who is perfect, leaving only one other opposite reality.

It’s naturally-occurring CO2. Try to tax Mother Nature, you Climate Cretins.

So a monitoring station in a area giant CO2 spitting mountains, crevices, and fissure is seeing increased levels of CO2? Oh know. What sayeth Fauci and his fawning Freapers have to say?

Should we lockdown until the experts say it is ok to breathe again?

Seriously the left considers climate change to be a bigger threat than WuFlu. By what logic in the Corona sense of logic do we not close down to stop it?

Sidenote: US economic activity can be roughly measured by the amount of highway traffic. Use of gasoline is closely related to the demand for ethanol. ADM, Decatur, Illinois is a significant supplier of ethanol. Most, if not all ethanol is shipped by rail. ADM stores their empties on the railroad museum tracks northeast of Monticello, Illinois along Interstate 72. There are now more than ever, by a factor of at least two, of tanker cars parked there. There is even a significant number of grain cars on this section of track. I would guess that this is probably the museum’s major source of income - probably more than the Christmas and Halloween trains.

Strangely enough, I haven’t experienced the usual hay fever here in NorCal this year. No idea how human activity could affect pollen counts.

“concerning religion” I’m agnostic as well.

Concerning God the Creator and His son, the Christ, I am not ashamed: for I know whom I have believed, and am persuaded that He is able to keep that which I have committed unto Him against that day. (2 Timothy 1:12)

“Religion”, with all it’s factions and infighting notwithstanding.
