Global Warming, Right.
:thumbup: :thumbup: Good information . Plus all plants need CO-2 to live and produce . That's their food ! I would be more concerned about all the forests being cut down than CO-2 emissions. Of course some people couldn't make as much money off of stopping the forests being cut down !

Grow industrial hemp. It could literally replace trees as a source of pulp for paper. Cheaper, and grows back in months, rather than decades.
Even my left leaning cousin believes global warming is a bunch of crap. Now we don't talk any longer so maybe he's changed his tune. Last time I talked to him it was 18 degrees below zero.

It isnt crap, just the manmade part. It is natural phenomenon that has been occuring ever since this planet had an atmosphere. If carbon dioxide cause global warming, why did we have almost 10 times as much of it in the atmosphere during the last Ice Age?

Empirical - depending upon experience or observation alone, without using scientific method or theory.
Example - I saw a falling star, therefore, all stars are falling...I mean really, whats all this science crap? All those tests and numbers and stuff...all of which ultimately lead to facts which just muddle things up...
In the United States anyway, the eco-terrorists have redefined empirical and Webster needs to update to the new definition; Empirical - depending upon experience or observation, without using scientific method or theory so as to support a foaming-at-the-mouth desire for specific political, financial and ideological outcome...

It's not exactly crap, but it surly does not cause global warming. Man does and has caused CO-2 simply by breathing. We also cause CO-2 in industry, but not in large amounts. I worked on a field where the EPA required monitoring emissions from smoke stacks and yes we do put out CO-2 in those stacks. One thing that really gets me though is the pictures that they show with all that smoke coming out of the stacks. Well, I hate to burst their bubble, but those pictures were taken on a cool or cold morning and MOST of what you see is simply steam coming out.
The CO-2 levels that are actually in the air that we are breathing is a very low number and is not going to hurt anyone. Plants require CO-2 to live and if the progressives had their way and we actually lowered the CO-2 levels like they would like to, we would probably kill off most of the plant life on this planet. Now that would REALLY be good for us wouldn't it?
By the way, I was not actually disagreeing with you, but just making a small correction to what you said. Man does cause CO-2, it's just that it is not going to hurt a darn thing. We just don't put out enough CO-2 to make any real difference to life on this planet and it sure is not going to cause global warming.

Even if CO2 were causing global warming I wonder what percentage of the total it causes. How much can be attributed to other causes? 2%? 10%? 90%? I haven't been able to find that kind of info.
They know that "Global Warming" is questionable science so they changed the name to "climate change". "Polar Vortex" is another new term the climatists like to use.
Where'd this nitwit political appointee study science? Just to bring you up to date, banjo, common sense ain't science.

Go look over Dr. Roy Spencer's site. He has a huge library of climate change information, data and fact. I have read some published papers, on his site, regarding that specific question.
http://www.drroyspencer.com/If you are on a mobile device switch "mobile view" off. You can access a lot more of his library through the desktop view.
Thank you for the source. Excellent information. I will use them in the future.
