AOC and other Liberals “follow the science” by having unswerving faith that Mother Gaia can only be saved by throwing sacrificial offerings on the altar of Communism.
Science is hard. And racist.
The total amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is 0.04%.
Human’s contribute 3.2% of that 0.04%, or 0.00128%.
Complete eliminate the human contribution and atmospheric carbon dioxide is still 0.04%,
Carbon dioxide is plant food. There are studies out there that show when there is more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, plants grow bigger and faster. Liberals need to learn the word “homeostasis”.

If only you could understand politics.
Not attacking you, personally. This is political. Their stupid ideas are political.
The people they are reaching won’t understand the science, either. The message of waste is a good one, though. Most people are cheapskates.
I’ve always wondered about this.
And of course, if you Google “Ian Plimer” most of the search results Google offers scream headlines like “Ian Plimer’s fake science debunked!"

During the Jurassic-Cretaceous periods of the dinosaurs C02 levels were around 5 to 12 times higher than today, and plant life thrived. Jungles covered the earth. Oxygen levels were also around 50% higher as a result. Two billion years ago life on earth almost ended completely because C02 was too low. The oceans froze, and 99% of all life died off. So what is a greater danger: too little C02, or too much?
Doesn’t quite fit the control narrative.
Maybe toss AOC into a volcano to appease the moronic left.
This author is late coming to the party. Major news outlets have signed a pact to agree to start referring to "climate change" as "climate emergency" in their reporting in hopes of increasing the impact on the public.
New Terminology. Same Old Bullshit.
Nonsensical. As a whole, volcanic CO2 emissions are 1/100 of manmade CO2. Yes, an eruption can certaintly output plenty of CO2, e.g. 42 Mt of CO2 with Pinatubo. That's about half a day of manmade. Sometimes people try to conflate Pinatubo's water vapor (which was much larger) with manmade CO2. Volcanic and fossil fuel water vapor are both completely irrelevant compared to evaporation. And evaporated water is much more important than CO2.
One thing controls the planet's temperature: and that is geography. Antarctica is a big freezer and Greenland is a smaller freezer. Both contribute to the cold bottom water that keeps the oceans around 36 or 37F on average.
One thing controls water vapor and that is average weather. Cold and dry La Nina is cooling the entire planet right now. Before that we had a glut of warm and wet El Nino. Those control temperature in the shorter run (years to decades).
Next step: sacrificing virgins to the volcanoes?
Yay!
We blocked some of the sun out!
Globull Warming, er Climate Change is defeated!!!
Wait, my green solar roof is only putting out 10%.
Can you tell me why it’s 40 degree in July?
What do you mean Little Ice Age?
What did those volcanoes do to the thermal energy transfer?
Carbon dioxide is way down, hurray!!!
What do you mean crop yields are way down and a famine is coming?
