Dont share these kind of videos at all, left winged or right winged, I am just stating that these guys are very right winged, they deny climate change etc etc.
And a question. Carbon dioxide is a natural gas. It makes up a large portion of our atmosphere... Following the law of Conservation of Matter, matter can I be created or destroyed; which means that we cannot create any more carbon monoxide than what already exists. So... What are we Doing wrong again? Creating more co2? It's not bad. Without it, plants will die, and so will you
First of all, it is a small part of our atmosphere, second of all, you are right, carbon dioxide is not harmfull on its own, but when concentrations rise and trap more heat in the atmosphere changing the climate that is a problem. And I know the earth seen levels of CO2 that were 10 times as high, but, a very important but, human civilization, which started 12000 years ago has never seen a temperature difference of +/- 1 degrees centegrate untill now. So now we are disrupting earth eco system, the system that gave rise to us, the system that our foodproduction and other important systems relly upon. I am not saying the earth is in danger, I am saying that human civilization has never seen something like this before and is in danger.
OK Listen. Say I have C + O2 -> CO2 (very simple and unrealistic equasion, but you get the idea.) The rule of conservation of matter applies, because in the beginning and the end, you have just as many C's and O's. Difference: We just turned oxygen into carbon dioxide! (That's not good) This example hopefully explains to you that we can create more of carbon dio/mono-oxide, which, like fj said, is really really bad. Even the most simple chemnistry explains this, as well as biology and geography.
Atmosphere's main ingredients areNitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide. Humans exhale CO2, correct? So we are constantly turning oxygen into C02, so there must be some way it turns back or we would be dead already. Oh there is! plants! Everywhere! Plants in the forests and the ocean and the desert and the snow and everywhere you look!
Yes, thats correct, that is called the carbon cycle, a very balanced system that works fine, well it worked fine untill we started burning fossil fueles that disrupted the balance. And you are saying that because of plants CO2 wont increase, guess what? We are also removing trees and plants so tell me, while we are pumping more and more CO2 into the atmosphere and less trees and plants are are using it,it will not increase? Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ffjIyms1BX4 It just sums up all the facts about climate change, it is a really good video at least give it a shot. (It is not comparable to PragerU that recieves millions from oilcompanies and then tells us that CO2 isnt bad, this guy just tells the facts because he loves talking about scientific subjects.)
I'm sorry craftking, but if you do not know all this basic stuff and deny things like climate change, I feel you're no smarter than the people believing there was no moon landing, 9/11 was rigged, and aliens already landed on earth. Stop with the stupid conspiracies and do your research, you will find that there's 1000x more proof for the things we say than the things you say.
... I simply mentioned that plants decreased the level of CO2, and now I am a conspiracy theorist, I believe in Lizardmen, I believe the earth is flat, no moon landing, rigged 9/11, and aliens? All I did was bring up a valid point, which was that there are plants which remove most of the CO2. How can their be more proof for what you are saying than what I am saying when all I mentioned was plants. Did any of you even read what I said? Also, climate changes all the time. Earth has had ice ages and hot periods. Yes, humans are speeding up the process, but still, it's natural
We are CREATING the process this time, and not any speed up but 10 times as fast as at the end of an ice age, which should be the fastest warming possible. The thing is that humanity has never seen any substantial climate changes, the earht will be fine like always, we just cannot say the same thing about humanity.
