I have said since this whole thing started the following:
Don’t know if global warming is happening or how fast.
Don’t know if it’s good or bad.
Don’t know if we or CO2 are the cause.
Don’t therefore know if we can do anything about it.
Do know every living thing expels or ingests CO2 and without it there would not be life. It is therefore the essence of “sustainability”.
At this time of year as the leaves fall remember every last one was CO2 at one time.
