Watch this. Very interesting counter arguments to the CC monster.
I honestly think the seasons are changing, certainly from when I was a kid in the 70’s , but I have always been of the thinking that’s it’s natural cycles.Even IPCC admit there are less 'weather events' now than historically.
And all drives being hardsurfaced instead of grass and the acres and acres of industrial unit rooves chucking all that water down the guzzler ...Localised flooding is normally because of lack of maintenance, drains, ditches, etc
Another myth….melting sea ice raises water levels.
Err, if any of you carnhts were in the southern hemisphere, you might think differently about climate & change . . .
It’s the water from glaciers on land raising the sea level as opposed to the ice already in the sea, all about displacement, as an iceberg melts it takes up less room.You will have to explain that one.
At least you should be OK from flooding, I reckon you're a few metres above the flood plain.....I honestly think the seasons are changing, certainly from when I was a kid in the 70’s , but I have always been of the thinking that’s it’s natural cycles.
Re flooding etc , when towns and villages rapidly expand on to flood meadows, with block paved drives, then where do they expect the water to go
As I understand it, plants cannot extract CO2 out of the atmosphere below 0.025%.We are very close to the minimum CO2 level in the atmosphere required to allow plants to survive. Any significant reduction will not only reduce crop yields but prevent plant growth altogether.
Great post, last bit especially.Some little know facts:
1. CO2 is about 0.04% of the atmosphere.
2. Humans contribute about 3% of the CO2.
3. Total human CO2 atmosphere is about 0.0012%.
4. CO2 needs to increase to improve plant growth & increase crop yields by 4-5 times the present levels.
5. One volcanic eruption puts out more CO2 than hundreds of thousands of years of humans.
6. The oceans & seas put out the majority of the CO2.
7. The land vegetation absorbs the majority of the CO2.
We need a cleaner planet, less plastics, more recycling etc. A completely different argument from all the CO2 stuff. Packaging companies are amongst the richest companies, so nothing will be done.
