climate change has been and always will be real its the "global warming" thats blown out of proportion

its cool to see how the weather is already starting to change in areas. texas will probably start seeing weather like this on a more regular basis

The historical range of CO2 concentrations extracted from ice cores is from 0.02% to 0.44%. The range that will support life is 0.017% to 5%. Below 0.017% plants die. Above 5% mammals die. The optimum level for plants and plankton is 0.2%.

At the start of the Industrial Revolution the level was about 0.030%. Currently it is about 0.041%. And remember that figure of the highest level ever recorded, 0.44%? Do you know what was happening when it was deposited? AN ICE AGE.

We also forget that the Earth experienced the Eocene period 52 million years ago where all the ice melted on the planet and we found fossils of tropical plants and tortoises up in the current arctic circle.

Does human activity impact the planet? You bet. Is it significant relative to the natural fluctuations in the history of the planet? Not yet.

Our sun is halfway through its lifespan and will continue to increase energy output to our planet, hence why particle pollutants that are harmful for our lungs actually help to block out the sun, called global dimming, hence why Bill Gates floated the idea of releasing particles into the atmosphere.
