Man made contributions to that are 3.225% of that .03%.

Bill Weir, CNN's chief climate correspondent, delivered a story to viewers on some scientists' warning that "90% of ice around Antarctica has disappeared in less than a decade." The topic and angle are normal fare for CNN and Don Lemon who hosted the segment, but it's notable that Weir reported on the scientists' warning while in Ushuaia, Argentina near the tip of South America.
"For the second year in a row, the south pole is shrinking, the ice down here is shrinking," Weir reported. "It's very worrying because Antarctica is a continent surrounded by oceans, and that sea ice protects those ice shelves from unlocking all that ice," the climate reporter continued.
"If it dumps into the oceans en masse, [it] would rearrange every city from Miami to Shanghai along the coasts around the world," Weir warned, saying the situation with Antartica's ice "could be a tipping point" leading to "disasters we don't want to have to imagine."
Don Lemon asked what, if anything, can be done to avoid the "tipping point" and "disasters" Weir warned of to which CNN's leading climate correspondent had an answer with a nearly lethal lack of self-awareness.
"It's the same answer as it has been for generations," Weir said. "The faster we can move away from fuels that burn — in the speediest and most equitable way possible — the less horrible this gets that's the only way right now," he added.
"Not only stopping it at the source," Weir continued, "but pulling carbon out of the sea and sky — carbon removal is going to be the biggest industry you've never heard of," Weir said.
CNN. Still the same old freak show. But hey! The Snowflakes and Zeros love it.
I call bs. 90% of Antarcticas ice is not just gone.
The jokes just keep writing themselves when it comes to these jackazzes.
Those in the Church of CAGW can cut their carbon all they want.
Just don’t ask me to help and, in general, leave me the f alone.
“The faster we can move away from fuels that burn — in the speediest and most equitable way possible — the less horrible this gets that’s the only way right now,” he added. “
H2 included?
“90% of ice around Antarctica has disappeared in less than a decade.”
Wasn’t it 90% twenty years ago?
Where’s the tipping point that dumps all these doom sayers into the volcano, to appease Mother Gaia-—or is that Mother Ganja?
Things I’m sick of hearing:
“Abundance of caution”;
“Our first priority is...”;
“Tipping point”;
And, unless it’s a doc looking at x-rays, “beautiful, inside and out”.
The clown needs to start living in a tent in the wilderness—I am sick and tired of him using valuable electricity.
Man made contributions to that are 3.225% of that .03%.
“It’s the same answer as it has been for generations”
He continued “Tax the peasants out hundreds of trillions of dollars. Starve them to death on bugs. Take all their possessions. Stop producing cars. Cut off their natural gas. Put them in “15 minute” towns. Cut the world population from 8 billion to 1 billion.”
And he went on: “But, naturally, we should not touch us smart, beautiful people because we care so much.”
He’s been sniffing the Ozone layer too much. Next he will warn about Guam tipping over if one more American Serviceman is stationed there. What a fool!
