They also tied the U.S. soccer team 1-1, during their first World Cup match. I’m assuming that they are much better at defense, and their goalkeeper is very big!

Yet the words “the accelerating climate crisis” allow them to snag millions in research grants. What a disgusting racket. Follow the money trail and it eventually gets to you and me and all of us paying for our own demise.

The process of carbon sequestration helps mitigate climate change, because it locks away carbon that otherwise would have warmed the planet somewhere else for hundreds, if not thousands, of years.

These people are both obsessed and wrong. The total tonnage of whales on the planet is infinitesimal. Their presence or absence has zero effect on co2 on a planetary scale.

It doesn’t take much “science” to figure out or conclude what you said.

It’s preposterous to think the total tonnage of whales would be anywhere near consequential. Especially compared to the total tonnage of ocean water and plant life in the oceans and on land.

If whales are carbon sinks, then so are cattle.

If they worry about those little things, mine should have them really concerned.
