My Take on CO2

The Environmentalist Whackos are smart in one way. They know how to con the media (and hence the public and the politicians) into supporting them. They are calling CO2 "carbon" and "carbon pollution," realizing that this word conjures up the image of smokestacks spewing black smoke. Any high school chemistry student knows that the gas, carbon dioxide (CO2), in no way resembles the solid, carbon (C): CO2 is not smoke!

I have read several articles by esteemed atmospheric scientists that prove that CO2 is not dangerous, that the earth flourished in times when it was warmer. After all, plants require it for growth! I have also read that water vapor is about 50 times as effective as CO2 is as a greenhouse gas. (Maybe spitting outside should be illegal.) The politicians, led by Obama, cite the large numbers of scientists who warn us about the danger of CO2. These "scientists" include mostly those from sectors other than climatology. Would you consult a podiatrist about a brain tumor? Of course there is Al Gore, who only plays scientist. He knows that the oceans are soon going to rise 20 feet!
