That’s what I do not get about their argument - the earths average temperature has risen one degree. Yeah? And? Last time I checked, a degree change in temperature hasn’t killed any wildlife.>>> i use the same argument here with friends in philly. it’s funny to read some one else state it.
That’s what the left always states though “The average world temperature has risen one degree in 100 years!” Do they even know how ridiculous that sounds? So the earth through eons can withstand hurricanes, meteors, earthquakes, volcanoes that spewed out more CO2 than we ever could in a million years, ice ages, solar flares, but a one degree change will destroy all life?? Life seems to be doing pretty good considering all the hell the earth went through in the past.
Another thing they should consider: The current percentage of CO2 in the atmosphere is 0.04%. If that percentage ever got down to 0.02%, plant life would start dying off and guess what dies off next? You ever see that movie “The Road”? That’s what the earth would be like with a 0.02% CO2 percentage. All the plants will be dead, and we would have people resorting to cannibalism until mankind was extinct. But we could never bring it down to that level no more than we can raise it. We have an atmosphere 300 miles high - not a “thin layer” as Al Gore says- with a mass of 5,000 quadrillion metric tons which might as well be infinity when it comes to man. And the left has the audacity to think we can overcome the oceans and the plants and rule the atmosphere? They are absolutely out of their mind. This is saying if you throw an ice cube at the sun the sun will to turn to ice. It is just completely and utterly off the wall.
