I thought we only had a few years left to solve the problem

A new "warning" on CO2 levels accidentally makes the case for more of the plant gowth-enhancing gas in the atmosphere.

We are constantly told we have only a few years to solve the problem of global warming climate change, yet this report projects allergy problems in the year 2100.The problem appears to be that we will have too many plants thriving because of CO2.

Allergy season will start much earlier than normal and be far more intense because of climate crisis, study suggests

The study, published Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications, found by the end of the century, pollen season could begin as much as 40 days earlier than it has in recent decades in the US because of global warming. Researchers also found annual pollen counts could climb by up to 250%.

As the window to adapt to the climate crisis rapidly closes, Steiner said the projections could still be avoidable if the world reduces greenhouse gas emissions at a large scale, while simultaneously getting carbon dioxide already in the atmosphere to a manageable point.

CO2 is a clear, innocuous, non-pollutant gas that causes plants to thrive. It is not causing rain forests to die; it makes them thrive. It does not cause starvation. It allows the World to be fed – an issue of increasing importance as food shortages loom.

It is a true shame that so many people are trying to control this non-pollutant while promoting the highly flammable pollutant lithium, the key ingredient in electric car batteries.

The first thing people need to do in order to get energy policies right is stop giving in to the premise that humans, CO2, and fossil fuels cause warming, because there is no scientific data to support that conclusion, only highly flawed computer models predicting it.

Didn’t Al Gore say New York City would be under water by 2015?

The Independent, 2000:

Snow is starting to disappear from our lives. Sledges, snowmen, snowballs and the excitement of waking to find that the stuff has settled outside are all a rapidly diminishing part of Britain's culture, as warmer winters – which scientists are attributing to global climate change – produce not only fewer white Christmases, but fewer white Januaries and Februaries …

Global warming, the heating of the atmosphere by increased amounts of industrial gases, is now accepted as a reality by the international community …

According to Dr David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become "a very rare and exciting event". "Children just aren't going to know what snow is," he said.

The progressives driving the “climate change” hysteria claim to love nature. In the effort to help nature in my area they are bulldozing forests and meadows, as well as leveling hills, to facilitate covering the ground with thousands of acres of unnatural solar panels. The solar panels prevent vegetation from growing underneath, resulting in man created erosion which fills the creeks with silt, killing fish and other aquatic creatures. The woodlands, which were eliminated, provided a natural habitat for a variety of animals and plants.

Where is the pushback against the destruction of the environment to save the environment? Why aren’t our elected representatives calling out the hypocrisy? Where is the Audubon Society and Sierra Club? Why aren’t the scientists on local university faculties leading students to lay in front of the bulldozers to save Mother Nature?

2100?
These “weather scientist” cannot even predict or agree on what tomorrow’s weather will be. But, By Gum they ‘know’ what Spring 2100 will be.

In January, 2006 — when promoting his Oscar-winning (yes, Oscar-winning) documentary, An Inconvenient Truth — Gore declared that unless we took “drastic measures” to reduce greenhouse gasses, the world would reach a “point of no return” in a mere ten years. He called it a “true planetary emergency.”

Climate change advocates have reduced their argument to any day other than a bright sunny temperate day is caused by climate change. Seems to me these advocates are blowing the same hot air as the windmills that are the answer to their prayers.

When looking at data around cities one finds that the temp’s are higher. The same is true on tarmac or airfields. Global warming could be lowered by removing cities.

I'm sure they are taking credit for pushing that disaster back a few years while claiming that continuing to push it back is becoming harder and requires more action.

If you ask exactly what action we took that avoided that first disaster, they will just call you a science denier, a Neanderthal, or a Nazi.

If ANY of these idiot shysters and their claims were remotely correct, we’d all be dead by now.

Funny how we never hear from Algore anymore. Not a peep.
You’d think that if all this were truly the life-or-death crisis he always claimed it was, he’d fight for it until his dying day, right?

Nope. He’s a billionaire now, isn’t he? Living it up somewhere nice; not worried at ALL about the “climate” anymore..

What a joke.

Please Mr. "scientist" tell me this. If the atmosphere on Mars is 95% Co2 and the average temp. is -81 deg. F what the hell happened to global warming?

Yep. He said that ‘a few years ago’ . . .

“Didn’t Al Gore say New York City would be under water by 2015?”

I’m old enough to remember when they were predicting it would be under ICE! As in GLACIERS!

Don’t get your hopes up.
