Argh, politics...

it's been proven that Volcanoes do not put out as much CO2 as we do, you all do know that? so quit bringing that up for goodness sake, ugh. You want I'll go get the facts for ya.
Now, that is volcanic activity we know about, so there's always that caveat.

And with CO2, the issue isn't so much chemistry, as physics (it's a greenhouse gas, it's not a chemical reaction that causes this issue).
If ANY numbskull DARES say "oh but CO2 isn't a greenhouse gas", I will then ask them WTH they got their education: Sesame Street? :P 
Simple experimentation can show you that it is indeed a greenhouse gas.

And Co2 is NOT "life!" as some imbeciles would have it...the Earth would be at -20C average temperature without CO2, Methane and Water Vapour, so yes, it keeps us "alive"
But Venus is baked to 480 celsius by the same chemical!
So, as Galen said, what is beneficial, or lethal is merely a matter of amount.

Another simple experiment can also show that ice does not melt at a nice linear rate, like the numbskulls have been showing for ages.
Yet another simple experiment and basic science shows why (surface area to volume ratio..ice breaks apart, gets fissuerd etc as it melts) I knew that 20+ years ago, but did folk wanna listen? nope...
So, "Pulses" as ice ages end, or vast ice dams broke = very rapid rises that have been shown.

Been debating this stuff for years with thickheads who simply won't accept man made climate change could happen just so they can live their indulgent dumb *** lives at everyone's expense....which is a different outlook to genuine scepticism based on REAL evidence.

The evidence is very heavily in the favour of "man made" climate change at the moment.
All usual caveats apply as in any scientific arguement..but this is very rarely about science.
Please note what this arguement REALLY means:

it's either a colossal waste of money and many scientists are talking out thier backsides

or
World War3, and I really DO mean Doomsday. a few degrees warming is all it takes to cause vast famines and dorughts, because we rely so heavily on cultivated crops, transport and power systems that would all be screwed up.
So, would you chose to use Nuclear Bacterial and Chemical weapons on Third WOrld countries to keep your grandkids alive, or not? that's what it would come to, vast population migrations, total war over just food and water...ethnic cleansing deluxe which will make the Nazis look like amateurs :(
Think I'm talking garbage? go check history, several civilizations have fallen after such events. We are no damn different. 7 billion of us cannot survive in such a changing climate. So, it's "them" or "us"..either way it's a bloody big loss. King Phyrrus, yes indeedy...

(History and Science are two of my other passions, hehe..alas, it lets you see things a little harshly)

I live next to one of the worst pollution sites in Europe, it's cost £100 million to clear up, they keep finding more poisons, and they planned ot build houses on it, next to the **2/3rds of a million tons of heavy metal poisoned ** earth they buried under an artifical hill...in blatant violation of common sense and decency.
Not ONE penny has been spent on cleairng up the town around the site (they built the plant right beside the town, morons!), nor dealing with the hugely increased rates of early deaths cancer rate etc, which even local doctors know is the case.

In such debates, people, follow the money.
$$$ buys "the truth" and hwo has the most? Oil & chem companies and our greedy systems, or environmental groups? Yes, there are raving cuckoos in the environmental field, but hey, you all do know whathappened about the fact that smoking causes cancer? well, for years, it was denied and covered up...
**Those who   refuse to learn from history are doomed to repeat it
**Meh :(

Hence I stick to art and other more happy topics here and suggest folk do likewise!
