The solubility of CO2 in water is inversely proportional to temperature

Since CO2 is soluble in water and the oceans cover a majority of the Earth's surface, the oceans sequester more CO2 than any other CO2 sink.

Because of the inverse solubility of CO2 with temperature, the colder the oceans get, the more CO2 they can absorb.

Conversely, when the oceans get warmer, they expel CO2.

Atmospheric CO2 therefore follows global temperatures, it does not cause them.

You can see the yearly global atmospheric CO2 fluctuation as the oceans warm and cool with the seasons in the NOAA graph below.

The "settled science" that CO2 causes "climate change" is criminal sophistry.

Thank you for posting this. I’ve been making this argument for years but no one listens. To add to what you posted, because the oceans release CO2 as temperatures rise if CO2 caused warming we would have a positive feedback system and temperatures would run away to the upside. Since this doesn’t happen the premise must be false.

Well, more that the morthern hemisphere plant growth socks the CO2 out of the air during the growth season, then releases some of that back during the later decay season.

Southern Hemisphere has many fewer million km^2 of land area. The equatorial is steady at release during decay and intake during growth. So Amazon and the African and SE Asia jungles don’t change the CO2 yearly cycle much.

So, cold beer has more fizz than warm.

Beer and Cokes must be banned as serious CO2 polluters

The "settled science" that CO2 causes "climate change" is criminal sophistry.

And as the chart reveals, there is virtually NO CO₂ in the atmosphere.

400 PPM (.04%) is damn close to Zero.

That .04 percent is part of the 1%, which is neither Nitrogen or Oxygen.
