Was trying to say humans can be very destructive not necessarily re: CO2 though. I guess I didn't make much sense. I had just so much to say about that statement too.
Leeches and mosquitoes aren't trying to harm anybody, they're just trying to get food. All living beings are out for themselves. Nobody said humans are a disease upon the world.

See the establishment wants it to seem as if humans are the real source of global warming. This justifies the need of a regulatory system and global bank where carbon taxes are paid to. Simply a means of control and power over the population.

Global warming is a fraud and an outright lie. The goal of the people pushing it is a global carbon tax. If you take an opinion on this type of thing, you had better have done the research, and checked the data. The Sun warms and cools the planet depending on its activity, which goes in rough cycles. The Sun has been studied for a very long time, (sunspot activity, etc) and the evidence supports that this, not carbon dioxide levels, drives climate change.

Besides, carbon dioxide isn't a bad thing for life on this planet. It's certainly not a pollutant.

Please post sources. I'm not against you, just want to see where you're getting all this from.

The idea that carbon dioxide is a pollutant is essentially a way of saying that humanity is a disease and should be depopulated.

Global warming is not caused from human activity maybe that huge ball of fire in the sky might have something to do with it.

Anyone that thinks global warming is either fake or a hoax is just not educated on the issue.  Or is a paranoid schizophrenic.  Its not really a question.  Its scientific fact.  The reason global warming is happening is because of the green house effect.  Its not the CO2 is bad.  It just has certain properties, one of which is absorbing wavelengths in the infared part of the spectrum.  When this radiation comes from the sun, some of it is either reflected back out into space, or absorbed by the earths surface.  When you have increased CO2 levels, you have less infared radiation being reflected back into space because green house gases absorb this wavelength of light, subsequently increasing temperature.

And some people contend the effects of this, global warming, fall into the category of 'having happened before. I think no matter how you view this issue the fact is temperature change happens and the discrepancy is those who view global warming as an imminent danger cannot say for certain that climate change within the last 500 years is drastically out line compared to natural change. Conversely, in the last 100 years climate has increased at an unprecedented rate. Is global warming a man-made issue that will kill us all? Probably not, I view it as us accelerating climate change that otherwise would occur naturally at a slower rate.

I hope that made sense
