  • Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a naturally occurring greenhouse gas and is essential for life on Earth to function normally. However, humans are emitting it on an industrial scale, like through the burning of fossil fuels, which is contributing to global warming.
    Kamyar Razavi explains how the exponential increase of CO2 release is causing the planet to heat up.

      How do you get to hell?
      Very simple: claim that you're innocent.
      How do you get to heaven?
      Very simple: Admit that you're not Innocent, you're guilty and ask for mercy.
      How to know if you're guilty or not?
      Simply: Compare your life to the Ten Commandments God gave you in the Bible.
      Everyone agrees that if people followed the ten commandments there would be no need for governments or police.
      Do not lie.
      Do not steal.
      Do not commit adultery.
      Do not insult God by using his name as a cuss word.
      There are six more but let's just leave it at that.
      How many lies have you told in your life?
      Have you ever taken anything that didn't belong to you?
      Jesus said, if you look at a women lustfully you've already committed adultery in your heart with that woman.
      How many times a day do you do that?
      Do you use God's name as a cuss word?
      Would you do that with your own mother's name?
      If you answer these questions honestly you know that you're guilty.
      God can justly punish you and send you to hell.
      Ask him for mercy.
      His name is Jesus.
      It's as simple as this, The Ten Commandments are called the moral law. You and I broke God's laws. Jesus paid the fine.
      The fine is death.
      Ezekiel 18:20 -
      "The soul who sins shall die.
      That's why Jesus had to die on the cross for our sins. This is why God is able to give us Mercy.
      Option A.
      You die for your own sins.
      Option B.
      Ask for mercy and accept that Jesus died on the cross for you.

      Climate naysayers have long upheld CO2 fertilization as evidence that humans are doing the planet a solid by pumping 40 billion tons of fossil carbon into the air every year. It’s an argument that makes sense superficially, but falls apart as soon as you start to unpack it.
      First and foremost,experts agree that CO2 fertilization is a temporary effect. The reason is simple: anything that limits growth, whether it’s sunlight, water, carbon, or even physical space, can only stimulate plants up to a point. Eventually, they run into some other resource limitation. This principle, called “Liebig’s law of the minimum,” was developed in agricultural science to explain why fertilizing a crop with plentiful nutrients doesn’t stimulate growth. It’s proven to be a very robust concept.

      Easy. Carbon taxes raise the cost of carbon heavy fuels to more accurately reflect the social cost of using those fuels, and incentivizes people and industries to find cleaner solutions. It's sound economic policy and the best tool we have to fight climate change. I'd hardly call that wealth redistribution since all the money collected is returned to the province from which it came, but I suppose you could argue that it economically favors people who pollute less. And I'm fine with that, people who pollute more should pay more.

    Here’s one concrete example of how the World Economic Forum can be dangerous. The WEF encouraged Sri Lanka to go organic and in a surprise announcement in 2021 the country did. It made an almost total ban on modern synthetic fertilizer, causing crop failure, then out-of-control inflation, a famine, and finally a revolution. Hundreds of thousands of people overran the presidential palace last summer. The president resigned and fled the country. The Wall Street Journal described the uprising as the “first contra-organic national uprising in history.”

    CO2 has a narrow spectrum and limited radiation is able to react mainly in the first 20ppm.. The mechanism is one of matching vibrations of the CO2 Molecule and incoming radiation. No energy is transferred without this. The exact frequency is most efficient, the first harmonic then third and so on reducing in effect. There is no mechanism whereby CO2 is capable of any climate emergency.

      Carbon is a very common element which can easily form molecules, so it naturally becomes a building block of many things - including living things like plants and humans (carbon based life forms), etc. Over geological time (millions and billions of years) layers and layers of this organic matter (say plants for example) build up. The pressure, heat and time transforms this material into fossil fuels, which are molecules of carbon in chains (oil) and rings (natural gas). The large scale use of these sequestered materials began to be used as fuel sources primarily during the industrial revolution and continuing from there. As civilization became increasingly mechanized and grew in size, we continued to consume ever more of this carbon reserve, becoming dependent on it. For example, imagine how many peoples' worth of power and energy it would take to fly a single commercial jet through the air... The byproduct of the combustion of fossil fuels is CO2 and other greenhouse gases. Therefore, in the span of only a few hundred years, we have treated the atmosphere like a sewer, and thrown millions/billions of years' worth of sequestered carbon into the atmosphere - which is far greater than the planet can naturally absorb and remove from the atmosphere. As a result, the concentration of carbon in the atmosphere has radically increased from the level typical throughout the last millions of years, and of course the concentration present while civilization developed over the last few thousand years (growing from a few million to billions). This carbon behaves like a blanket or greenhouse, trapping the warmth from the sunlight and slightly increasing the global average temperature. Because our ecosystem is a finely balanced machine, this change is causing dramatic effects and also tipping points to occur which can result in a runaway effect of warming (such as permafrost thawing releasing methane, or reducing the amount of sunlight reflected due to the loss of sea ice). If these changes occurred over geological timescales it may not be so bad, as animals would slowly evolve, adapt, or go extinct, however, because this is happening so quickly it is resulting in a global extinction event (this is the trend), and humanity is ill prepared for such a dramatic change over a few decades. Simultaneously, humanity has increased its population to such a large and artificial degree that any reduction in the capacity to sustain ourselves will be met with incredible harm, such as famines, migration, and geopolitical disputes. Hopefully this quick explanation was useful, I've obviously left a lot out as it is a complicated science.
