The bottom line is this. We could spend trillions to “combat” globull warming, but all it takes is one or massive eruptions from Mt. Pinatubo, Mt. Vesuvius or any other active volcano, and all the carbon emissions reduction plans, etc all go up in smoke. In other words, Mother Nature still calls all the shots and we have no control over what happens in our climate. I don’t care what these “learned” fools think. We’ve had major warming and cooling episodes in Earth history long before the arrival of man, and there were no belching smokestacks from factories or CO2 emissions coming from cars when these episodes occurred. The worldwide left just wants more control and power over all our lives, and driving fear about human induced climate change is one such scheme!
Pinatubo had about 42 Mt of CO2. That's about 1/2 a day of manmade emissions. Total volcanic production is about 1/100 of manmade. So that's not an argument. What is a good argument is that one large volcano and all the nice warmth we enjoy is gone. The stratopheric aerosols will cover the planet and cool it from a few years to 10 years or more with a super volcano. Crop failures and starvation will ensue.
