1) CO2 *does not* have warming properties
2) CO2 emissions are not responsible for global warming
3) Hence, mankind cannot be responsible for global warming by emitting CO2
4) Regardless, at .04% concentration, this yucky bad pollutant is breaking down the biosphere
5) Since its yucky, we should reduce it.
6) Only technology will let us reduce its yuckiness

So yeah, Im pretty convinced now to stop polluting CO2 thanks to that thread. Its almost become a moral imperative to eliminate yuckiness.


The climate threads Ive seen outside of E&E are total messes.

I submit that thread as exhibit A why keeping the stray cats out of the sandbox allows for a happy playtime for all of us.

This not-particularly-respected DUer appreciates it.

It's bad enough seeing that kind of obnoxious dropping when it appears in LBN or Meta
but allowing blatant right-wing propaganda into E/E would kill it.

There's also been a discussion in LBN.

My eyes are everywhere.
