So am I reading this right?
Does that graph show that CO2 concentrations have
been on the decline for the last 175 million years?
Is the blue line ‘temperature’?
(if yes, then what is(are) the ‘red’ line(s)?)

The red line is the average temperature of the earth over millions of years. Believe it or not we are in an ice age, though we have been lucky for the last 10,000 years with a ‘brief’ warm period.

The average temperature today is around 15 deg C.

think about it for a second. ALL scientists will agree with this point that we are in a brief warm period during the middle of an ice age, it is just a matter of time when we plunge back into the cold period of the ice age that we are experiencing. It isn't a matter of 'if' it is a matter of when.

While we are screwing around with global warming the real threat is the coming ice age. It could be a thousand years off or it could be tomorrow we only know it usually happens suddenly. I would expect 2/3's of the population of the earth will die if not more.
