    Our planet just set a scary new carbon dioxide record

    See more at the link https://grist.org/article/our-planet...ioxide-record/

    Excerpt:

    Our planet’s level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere reached a new, jarring record last month. Scientists from Scripps Institution of Oceanography announced on Tuesday that February’s average carbon dioxide measurement was 411.66 parts per million as measured in Mauna Loa, Hawaii.

    Since humanity’s greenhouse gas emissions were at an all-time high last year, a new record was expected. What was shocking was that it occurred so early in the year: Earth’s carbon dioxide levels typically peak in May, when the vast northern forests of North America and Asia are just beginning to green up. Setting a new record in February is “rare,” according to Scripps.

    All of my trees and plants love carbon dioxide. However, recognizing your concern is important to me. If you believe there is too much carbon dioxide, stop breathing.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Announced just a week after California reported that for the first time ever the state in the month of February NEVER saw a temperature in excess of 70 degrees...

    ...we need MORE CO2, not less.


    They measured that 411 ppm number in Hawaii....were they downwind of the VOLCANO?

    How does a supposedly respected scientific organization post a global extrapolation from a single data point?

    Pick and choose data that supports the narrative and agenda.

    Scary? This is great for plants.
    When Donald Trump said to protest “peacefully”, he meant violence.

    When he told protesters to “go home”, he meant stay for an insurrection.

    And when he told Brad Raffensperger to implement “whatever the correct legal remedy is”, he meant fraud.

    War is peace.

    Freedom is slavery.

    Ignorance is strength.

    Twas much ado about nothing. Maybe even a hoax. .............. *As it turned out, those widespread fears proved to be largely unfounded, since only one species of tree at a high elevation suffered any notable effect, and acidity in lakes was traced to natural causes. The investigating scientists reported that they had “turned up no smoking gun; that the problem is far more complicated than it been thought; that other factors combine to harm trees; and that sorting out the cause-and-effect was difficult and in some cases impossible.”* ................. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.for...ring-down/amp/
    It's ok if you disagree with me. I can't force you to be right.

    Since we have been in an abnormally low level of CO2 due to the 2.5 million year ice age, more will only help.
