1. Yes, the climate changes through time. BUT we're pumping 2 billion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere a year JUST in electricity production from coal plants in the U.S. Where does that carbon go? Most of it gets sequestered in the oceans. The oceans are our favorite dumping grounds. You see the reports on dead and dying fisheries? You see the reports on the explosion of jellyfish everywhere?
2. As i said, the climate will change on it own throughout the centuries. Our "small" contributions over the past century have about the same effect as a nitrous booster on a gasoline engine - put a little in and get a large response.

They're so powerful, they created a whole news channel to spoutthier bile - FOX news.

Today's Featured Article - My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
