Whoops!
You are off by one decimal point, Bob.
Co2 is 0.04% of our atmosphere.
It's 400 parts per million.
I agree, that is still a very tiny amount, but the Global Warming crowd will laugh you off the stage if you make an error like that.
CO2 levels during the Carboniferous Period were 400 times higher than present levels.

Still even at 0.04% that is not even remotely close to being enough to blanket the globe in a thick enough blanket to trap heat- not even close- As mentioned before, it’s far more likely that this piddly 0.04% is in tiny insignificant pockets scattered 1000’s of miles apart all over the globe and couldn’t possibly be big enough to tap anything-
And, EVEN IF there was a blanket trapping heat from escaping, wouldn’t it also mean that the CO2 PREVENTS heat from entering fro m the sun in equal force thereby cancelling out any effect that trapping has??
We are about to have trillions of dollars stolen from us over this lie- and the GOP sits idly by allowing it to happen without asking the critical questions like how it’s possible for only 4/10’ths of 1% of our atmosphere can be causing warming on a global scale-
The only ‘answer’ I can find online makes the asinine argument that CO2 is like poison, and that ‘it wouldn’t be a good thing to have 0.04% arsenic or risin in a cup of tea” or the equally asinine argument that “our bodies contain .05% iron, but if it gets more, it’s deadly” (not sure on the percentage of iron- but ran across that moronic argument the other day)-
Their only ‘answer’ is that CO2 is “like a a poison”? Really? That still doesn’t even come close to answering how just 0.04% of the atmosphere can cause warming on a global scale
