If mindlessly shouting your idiot talking points on cue like a trained poodle embarrasses you so such, you should go beg your masters for new ones.
1. Only by foreshortening the history of the earth to the last 600,000 years, as al gore did in his film, can the case be made that atmospheric carbon levels are anything but historically low.
2. When plants evolved photosynthesis, atmospheric carbon levels were in the thousands of parts per million - not the hundreds. Plants today live in a carbon starved environment, by evolutionary standards.
3. For most of the earth's history, atmospheric carbon has been above 1000ppm. Every plant on earth does better in a carbon enriched environment, and virtually all greenhouse or hothouse grown vegetables are grown in a carbon enriched environment.
4. If every major city in America invested a thousand bucks per person on carbon enriched greenhouses, the carbon saved from no longer trucking veggies to market and the carbon sequestered by the crops in the enriched environments would more than address carbon emissions, without creating any global trading boards to allow the privileged few (gore and his cronies on both sides of the pretend aisle) to "speculate" (take a cut) on the very air we breathe.
5. OSHA allows 1000ppm of atmospheric carbon in conference rooms at work.
6. Rupert Murdoch, owner of fox news, is perceived as being against climate change. In truth, he owns 150 OTHER media outlets which are all global warming, all the time. His enterprise at fox is only STALLING, while the principles squabble about their seats at the table and their cut of the pie. Once those issues are sorted, fox will be instructed to "grudgingly" admit they were "wrong" about climate change - and endorse a carbon trading board. Indeed, republicans were originally tasked with introducing the idea of carbon trading, under Poppi Bush.
7. Sea levels don't rise exclusively in the third world, as we are being instructed - the oceans are not racist.
8. You do not know what the optimum temperature of the earth is. No one does. We might be getting closer to it, or farther from it - no one can say.
9. You do not know what the optimum atmospheric carbon level is. No one does. All life on earth dies if it dips under 200, and declines as it nears that number. It is virtually certain that levels are lower than optimal, given that there are no known species of plants which are not currently operating at below optimal carbon levels.
10. The lowest carbon levels recorded in earth's history - in the 200s - coincide with ice ages (which are extinction events).
