its greenhouse gases , co2 being one of the main contributors , methane and cfcs for example do far more damge and the planes in the sky
sift through it yourself
Look at China and India in that chart buddy boy
life on earth will end when CO2 drops completely
CO2 is barely a greenhouse gas though
becasue of the brighter sun
Water Vapor completely wrecks it in that role
And we're ass at modeling that outside of like a week
even within a week we're bad at it
the us has stopped actively reducing , trump after all did drop out of the paris climate agreement
@Eirshy Co2 contributes to the greenhouse effect which isn't actually a bad thing, it's bad when it runs out of control and humanity isn't anywhere near those levels
@Gservator Does contribute, sure, but not a significant contributor
@James Connolly the Paris agreement just gave India and China more room to pollute you dimwit
>Believing the Paris Accord did literally anything
unless the US deploys futuristic coal powerplants that can match nuclear power output i'm not seeing much changing
Wew fucking lad
I'm not a climate denier, i just remember that several people have told me the world would end 4 times by now
i amnt trying to excuse china or india here , you just trying to shift your personal responsibility
I miss when they were saying we were gonna enter an ice age by 2013
Hell, people have been doomsaying with climate change since at least the 70's
the solution lies in a different approach
i think there was even one in the 50's or so
you know the climate people dont mention anything about china or india or developing africa
a combination of phasing out gas engines and artificially cooling the earth down
thats shady
good luck with the second
they make it out as if its the 1% emission contributors that are evil and must stop immediately
maybe read some scientific papers because no scientist have been saying the world was going to end 4 times since the 70s that were peer reviewed
no, its because those countries will laugh at you and then redouble their polution just to fuck with you
@James Connolly the Paris Accord had no fangs for enforcement. Dropping out of it doesn't mean there's gonna be no reduction just like being in it doesn't mean there will be a reduction. But on top of that the pollution contribution of the entire western world *combined* is *minuscule* compared to China and India.
have you seen the shots of smog in china?
the paris accord is a verbal agreement. has nothing to do with action
@James Connolly my countries Co2 emmissions equal 1.6% of total global emissions, I'm not shifting responsibility, I'm pointing at who is really to blame or are you really that thick?
western world combined has as much as china and india what are you on ?
the way the media portrays the current climate change is something like ``` IF YOU EAT MEAT THE EARTH WILL TURN INTO VENUS```
absolutely bonkers
what country is that then?
