Scientists Warn of Climate Apocalypse: CO2 Emissions Will Send Earth Back to ‘Triassic Period’
breitbart.com ^ | 4/8/2017 | Thomas D. Williams, Ph.D.

The unchecked use of fossil fuels will produce a climate not seen since the Triassic period about 200 million years ago, researchers warn in a new report.

The culprit for this unprecedented warming is atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), suggest researchers led by the University of Southampton in the UK, which by the year 2250 could reach levels equivalent to those of the “age of reptiles,” when dinosaurs roamed the earth.

In their research, the researchers admit that CO2 levels are “much lower now” than they have been at other, hotter points in the earth’s history, yet they warn that levels are rising rapidly.

During hotter periods in the planet’s history, the concentration of CO2 has climbed as high as 3,000 parts per million (ppm), whereas in 2016, the concentration was only 400 ppm.

Evil "See-Uh-O-2" alert. Maybe when it warms up(?) I'll crank up the ac and leave the windows open to help cool the erf. Hey, it's the least I can do. Now, if we could only get it to warm up. But, possibly more snow in the forecast for the end of the week.

I suppose these “scientists” make and use their own drugs.

Scientist were once respected members of our society.

However, they sold their soul for a few research grants. They are no longer “scientist” they are propagandist for the Globalist. Shame on them.

I trust a used car salesmen more than I trust a scientist that supports “man made global climate change”

Humans are a nit on the earth. The earth had an ice age. The ice melted. All without man around. How did that happen? Yes, climate changes. I am far more concerned about the next ice age than a few more degrees

Should one give credance to claims coming from a group that has not had even one climate model prove correct?

Remember what physics students call the bottom 10% of their class: climate resrearch types.

rktman :" Evil "See-Uh-O-2" alert. Maybe when it warms up(?)"

Don't forget to plug up the methane pot holes in Siberia.
Methane is supposed to be 25 times more destructive than "See-Uh-O-2".
Mother Nature is such a cruel mistress !

When the warmth suddenly fostered a super ecology wherein large fauna could thrive for 50 million years?

If any climate model was correct, there would only be that single climate model.

Yeah, but those dinosaurs were really dumb, responsible for their own demise.

Whether the Earth will revert back to the Jurassic period or not, I really doubt it.

Whether the thinking ability of some scientists will shrink back to that of the Jurassic period or not, I really believe that’s well underway.
