The 1% in the forum, Co2 capture tech & global destruction

[Captdon]

I don't share the OP's opinion about the end of things and doom at all. I've lived through a few of these ecological catastrophe scenario cycles already.

I would hate to live in fear as the OP does.

The atmosphere could go away tomorrow but I can't live in fear.

No, it can't.

[MisterVeritis]

What would you do today to clean up "excess" CO2?

No action is required. Additional plants will flourish.

[MisterVeritis]

No, it can't.

One massive coronal mass ejection (CME) could do it.
It is good CMEs are so rare.

Yes. It could. Feel fortunate we have never had a massive CME direct hit.

I can understand that, but honestly it is not about living in fear. It is exactly the opposite of that. It is about living in this amazing world and respecting what it gives us and appreciating it with our whole being. Being aware of dangers of the actions of human greed, does not mean you are living in fear but living with wisdom. If you do not have wisdom and insight you cannot see something before it is coming and have time to make the changes.

Let us say I have a plant. I am afraid that one day that plant can die so I don't even want to look at it. I don't even go into the room that it is in because I do not want it to die.

Now if we can deep look we can easily tell the future. We can see, that If I water that plant and feed it, it will have the greatest chances for survival. If I don't then I will have killed that plant myself.

So If I am afraid of the plant dying and I don't even go near it, then I just live in fear. But if I have the knowledge that this moment could cause something to happen in the future and how can I change it. Then I can have the upper hand. I will not be afraid at all and I will just do my best. I will water that plant daily and care for it and feed it and know I did the best I can.

Learning about the "real" issues that our world is not facing is not fear based. It is wisdom based. It is proactive based knowledge. We can only do our best and that is all. It is not in any way doom, they are real events taking place now and some in the planning stages. None of the things in my threads are science fiction but all real. I always give links so you can research it for yourself.

I also have made threads on the beauty of life. That is how I see the world. That is not fear based in any way. But I would like our world to still be a place where humans can inhabit it. I don't think that is too much to ask for. But there are those who have other designs.

[Tahuyaman]

Yes. It could. Feel fortunate we have never had a massive CME direct hit.

It could through an act of God which isn't going to happen any time soon.

While I am alive I hope you will not be proven wrong.

A CME can happen at any time. Fortunately, we are a very small target. The CMEs that do happen always go somewhere else. Almost always.

No one has pushed you off of the forum. That's you acting like a petulant child. I get attacked and I don't leave. I can defend my positions. Perhaps that's your problem. You have positions you can't defend and feel foolish. That's on you and not on the forum.

You should stay if you believe what you write.

I am not complaining I was responding to donttread. It is nothing I haven't said before. I am no child. Lets not go there! Not once have I not defended my positions or not backed up everything I say. Nothing about what I say here is foolish. I do not feel foolish in the least. I feel sorry for those who think facts are lies even when given documents and proof.

I am not leaving the forum because of anyone don't give yourself that kind of credit. I only stayed because of you guys. But I am finished saying what I had to say now. I have spent several weeks of my life here sharing the things I know, and now I am done sharing and so I am going back to my life. I have only posted in two forums in my life this one and one other years ago. It is not something I want to do every day for the rest of my life. I have appreciated talking to a lot of the people here. There are some intelligent and decent people here and I do appreciate that. But don't give any credit to yourselves for me leaving. I am just leaving. Arguing points every single day is not healthy. We have to get out and live too.
