Is Earth's atmosphere really so fragile?
Wednesday, July 22, 2009 6:37 AM PDT
How much do we really know about global warming?
The quiz below will help you evaluate your own level of knowledge on the subject. The answers were taken from a graphic created by the Heritage Foundation's National Center of Policy Analysis, which was printed as part of the lead editorial in the June 29 edition of Investors Business Daily.
The global warming quiz is as follows:
1. Greenhouse gases make up what percentage of the earth's atmosphere? a) 25 percent b) 12.7 percent c) 4.9 percent d) 2 percent
2. Carbon dioxide (CO2) is what percentage of all greenhouse gases? a) 20.7 percent b) 12.15 percent c) 5.1 percent d) 3.62 percent
3. What percentage of the above carbon dioxide is caused by human activity and thus subject to potential reduction via human efforts like President Obama's proposed "Cap and Trade" program? a) 15.1 percent b) 11.9 percent c) 5.2 percent d) 3.4 percent
4. What percentage of Earth's atmosphere is composed of carbon dioxide created by, or resulting from, human activity which we are told must be reduced to avoid catastrophe? a) 1 percent b) .025 percent c) .0075 percent d) 0.0025 percent
"D" is the correct answers to all of the above questions. The 25 one-thousandths of a percent answer to question 4 was calculated by multiplying the "D" answers in questions 1 through 3, i.e. .02 x .0362 x .34 is equal to .0000246 or .0025 percent rounded off.
Does it seem plausible or logical to you that the earth's atmospheric balance is so fragile and hypersensitive to the infinitesimally small amount of carbon dioxide created by mankind that we need to do something as drastic as President Obama's "Cap and Trade" program, which will add $1,800 to $2,000 per year to every family's utility bill, according to the most recent projections? If not, then perhaps we should all raise such a ruckus that neither the President nor Congress can ignore.

In court, the judge tricked him into arguing the points that were already agreed.
The file that was already agreed, with a nuclear force field around it got turned upside-down, and the judge said in his/her court, they were going to argue the whole thing again.
The guy who lost his case went home, asked what to do.
You would think that a prestigious law firm would learn the first time that if they non-respond against an affidavit the first time, saw the consequences, escaped by luck in the courtroom, that they wouldn't commit the same mistake the second time they were presented with the same affidavit.
They did. "

I made a conspicuous statement that if anyone wants to join the party, I can add their name to the list of libelees, if they merely act like they are involved in the contract.
I don't think the fraudulent libelees on the other end were ever concerned that they were served an affivit, and they must be thinking that I'm nobody and I don't have any money or power, so they are probably thinking that they have enough money to hire a lawyer if I ever try to file a public lien against them.
Unbelievable. When I wrote the affidavit, I was concerned with their making a rebuttal, so I put everything on there.
My mentors only put 2 statements, and they get a non-response, again, with res judicata, stare decisis, and collateral estoppel. "

In my claim, the Libelees own and operate a church, and have a lot of money and power in the community because of the church, or vice versa (money).
Ironically, in my offer of grace at the beginning of the claim, I made reference to the biblical origin of the laws that I was going to use against them. In spite of their “Godliness,” they didn’t understand the meaning and significance, and the claim proceeded. Basically, I was offering them a way out, at the beginning. "

Below you see Leonard is playing with Dr. Seitz. That's a feather in his hat, and I can't say its the only feather he's got, because he might have another comment/blog achievement that I'm not aware of.
He's focused on Dr. Seitz whereas 17,000 scientists signed Seitz' petition.
I should have been suspicious of Dr. Seitz for being a professor of a universtity named, "American University." I've never heard of them before. Perhaps they put the name "American" on themselves to create the illusion of their being American. I always taught the principle of putting up misleading names, when this particular name didn't catch my attention, and
Leonard found that Dr. Seitz of American University was actually a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, a satellite frontal group (a mask to conceal the true identity) of the UNITED NATIONS. "

Further, the planets farther out are experiencing luminosity, which indicates a change to their climates as well. There is evidence that our magnetic poles are shifting and that the sun may have a huge part to play in this scenario.
In relation to those theories that have even less of a scientific basis (depending on whom you speak to) there are those who believe that the coming of the 10th planet, Nibiru, is the cause of climate change. "

Another thing, why not legalize hemp? Hemp produces beaucoup oxygen and grows in about three months only to be grown again as a continual source of oxygen. Not only that, but hemp makes durable paper, clothes, can be eaten, used as fuel for vehicles, building materials for houses, and on and on. "

They showed how humans exhale CO2 and how trees exhale oxygen in the symbiotic relationship we have with the plant kingdom.
Anyway, they went on to say how there are soooo many humans and how our numbers and activities are producing so much CO2 that the trees can't keep up. "

Ok well anyway to turn the bold on you used brackets on either side of the letter "b", yes? So to turn it off you need to use a switch or it will just continue bolding everything after the first command. So after your intended bolded comment use "/b" in the brackets.

For the anti-science folks: Is it your belief that humans do not pollute the environment, or do you believe that humans do pollute, but that this pollution has no consequences for life on Earth? "

Nice red herring. The effects of Sodium are well documented....not so much with CO2 and global warming.
As far as eliminating sodium. Go ahead eliminate all the man made sodium in your diet and guess what you will survive becasue nature produces what you need.
The point of the article in case you missed it, is that it is the height of arrogance to assume that what little change man can induce will effect the planet. I know you libs like to believe that you are the center of the world and all that but come on what about mother gaia and we humans only being parasites? If things get bad enough won't she just kill us all off. "

Is the human body really so fragile?
I suggest that all of those who agree with Mr Myers conduct the following experiment: Eliminate sodium completely from your diet and report back to us in one years time on whether small changes to natural systems can have big consequences. "
