Ok... let’s just say Fuel Oil… Most all fuel oil is buried deep underground and will never release CO into the atmosphere unless it is extracted from the ground and burned in some form. Wood (or Trees) will absorb CO into its body and grow. When a tree dies, it starts to rot and release the CO it has absorbed throughout the years back into the atmosphere.
So my take on it is… If you burn wood your just recycling the CO. If you’re burning fuel oil, you’re adding to the amount of CO already in our atmosphere.
Just my take on it.
Carbon Dioxide is not a toxic chemical no matter how stupid Al Gore is.... Our bodies produce carbon dioxide as a side effect of breathing. The whole global warming/ CO2/ carbon footprint scam has been exposed. To have a discussion on what produces more CO2 as a pollutant is a discussion in stupidity.
I would be irresponsible as a father, as an American, and as a human, to let this go unchallenged. Since this is not the right forum for a Climate Change debate, I'll try to be brief.
- The self-absorbed politician Al Gore is not a scientist, nor is he the source of any valid data about climate change. (Just like most characters on the other side of the debate - Bjorn Lomborg the economist and other climate amateurs.) Climate scientists are the source, and it is their claims you should be addressing.
- It's interesting that you're so convinced GW is a scam, you don't even bother to substantiate your claim. That's kind of bold, considering that the vast majority of climate scientists disagree with you. Surely you have some kind of climate science credentials to be taking on the entire scientific community? Maybe you've been up in the Arctic taking bore hole samples lately?
- It's amusing that the MSM is often accused of "hyping up" GW, when they are also a major conduit for the junk science that tries to "expose" GW science as a "fraud".
- Follow the money. GW research is done in a wide variety of institutions all over the world, and its funding comes from the same sources that fund other kinds of scientific research - most of which you wouldn't dream of challenging. Anti-GW propaganda is funded almost entirely by transnational businesses with huge and obvious conflicts of interest, such as the oil and coal industries. This is a no-brainer.
- I strongly encourage you to engage with me on this OFF LIST PLEASE. This is in my view one of the most important debates the American public should be having, but instead it's usually dealt with using insults and obvious lies. Let's talk facts, there are lots of facts that we should be talking about.
-- sorry, everyone, to add to the already off-topic content in this thread, but sometimes you gotta speak up.
