There's an exception to every rule.

Very interesting. Higher CO2 levels equates to more food for plants to thrive. Plants produce oxygen, thus reversing the effects of CO2.
How come no one mentions pollution caused by fossil fuels? If we get rid of pollution, which everyone agrees should be eliminated, we end the
'climate change" debate.

He makes some compelling arguments. Here is what climate scientists say in response.

You do know that fossil fuels that are burned today were plants of yesterday that absorbed CO2 when they were alive, before they decaded and became fossil fuel, right?

Right, but do we want pollution from exhaust fumes that we have to breathe? Our lungs were not designed to absorb exhaust fumes.

So let's take C02 that was absorbed over many millions of years, and put it into the atmosphere in a couple centuries and see what happens ?

Is he really making that argument ?

They are not designed to absorb pot fumes either.

Ahhh, Marcus with his SkepticalScience links.

Don't hurt yourself by trying to learn something.

Oh please, the air is cleaner now than it was decade ago.

Because of tight pollution standards. We need to make those standards tougher so as to eliminate pollution further.

Are you certain of this? There seems to be overwhelming evidence that points to early man consuming cannabis for medicinal benefits. Either they knew to consume it by eating it paired with a fat, or they were decarb'ing it and inhaling the fumes. Science you know

Ironman says

Learn something from you??? Ha Ha

Hell would freeze over first!

THAT may be the first true thing you have written here!

And, very sad too. For as ignorant as you are, you refuse to learn anything from anyone ever... Ironvagina is destined to die just as stupid a loser as he is today. SAD.

Eat your farts, it's good for the planet,

Ironman says

Yep, and you represent that, and NOT in a good way.

I see your gay love for me is still strong. Don't worry, it will pass.

A car is designed to transport you from point A to point B.
A car requires fuel to perform this function.
A car does not require a 28 speaker BOSE system to perform this function.
The 28 speaker BOSE system may make the trip more pleasurable, but it is not a requirement in fulfilling a car's main function.

The body is designed to perform the necessary functions to keep itself alive.
To remain alive, the human body requires blood cells exchange oxygen for carbon dioxide on a nonstop basis.
The human body does not require THC in the bloodstream to remain alive.
THC may make staying alive more pleasurable, but it is not a requirement in fulfilling a body's main function.

The BOSE system and THC are optional benefits / detriments that you can add to the two examples above.
The BOSE system provides listening pleasure, at the risk of impaired hearing.
THC provides an alternative pleasurable mental state, at the risk of long term impaired critical thinking.

Both are nice options, but not part of the original designs.

Pollution standards are a good thing. Nobody wants to choke on the exhaust of the clunker they're driving behind, or have our air wind up like China's. What doesn't need to happen is having CO2 classified as a pollutant. Our lungs deal with that just fine, and it's harmless in concentrations double the present state!
That said, strategies for cleaner energy production are a good thing and solar has come a long way. How about instead of panicking about the situation, we just continue to innovate and construct more alternative energy sources until we gradually achieve a more carbon neutral result?

And end the "climate change" debate once and for all.

Except climate change isn't worried about CO2 toxicity to humans. CO2 has other detrimental effects-see greenhouse gas.

Please stop posting. You've already shown you're too ignorant to understand this issue.

Why, you afraid you're not going to get your TROLL payment for today because I keep destroying your lying narratives??

No, because you add nothing and spam the thread.

We've explained to him why H2O is an amplifier and not a source driver time and time again. He's to ignorant and mentally calcified to understand. He thinks that repeatedly spamming useless facts that have convinced him, he is adding to the conversation.

The Great Socialist Paradise does not find this thread amusing.
