The highest C02 levels of the past are associated with the ice ages, with few people on the planet at all...humans being a very minor species in number. With massive continental glaciers and low temperatures, plant growth was maintained in more temperate regions by the high CO2, and allowed as fast a recovery as possible of adequate plant life and oxygen production as the ice receded.

He probably fried his brain sniffing CO2 in college dorms instead of N2O................

Some think that oil is produced in the earth’s crust

Has anyone ever calculated how many tons of animal and plant remains would be required to produce the oil we have already consumed? I have thought for a long time Natural Gas was being produced by some process in deep in the earth. If it has been Billions of years below the surface why has it not all leaked out, unlike water it is lighter than air.

Rom 1:25
They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator

Those who say it is 'pollution' aren’t into helping plants.

An pretty good article, save for the stupid little asides like the one quoted.

This is how Disney grows their plants in their land pavillion at Epcot.

The solution is for the Greens to inhale more CO2 and less O2.

I read an article many years ago on how oil is produced at deep levels in the earth’s crust and many scientists know about this and it would solve the world’s energy problems but OPEC does not want that so they keep the production of oil restricted.

But the UN, IPPC, CRU, NASA, Kenyan Administration, Brown administration, big bankers, big industrial and trading CEO’s want to kill all the plants. They hate them.

CO2 is NOT a toxin to animals. CO is a toxin, but CO2 is neutral.

Thanks for the clarification. CO2 is an animal waste product. Oxygen is a plant waste product.
