[QUOTE="DA 20, post: 2848158, member: 7680"] In his State of the Union Address, President Obama invited anybody [who] wants to dispute the science around climate change . . . to have at it. The Supreme Courts response? Thank you, Mr. President, for the offer. We will. On Feb. 9, the court upheld a delay of Obamas war on fossil fuels, which is supposed to stop climate change, in the form of new restrictions on factories greenhouse-gas emissions. Apparently a majority of the court is less confident of the science around climate change than Obama is. As well they should be. Obamas policies will have negligible effects on the climate and will be all pain with no gain. Two critical points about the science around climate change stand out in a review recently completed by the CO2 Coalition, a new independent, nonpartisan scientific-educational group (CO2Coalition.org). First, carbon dioxide, CO2, is emphatically NOT a pollutant. All living things are built of carbon that comes from CO2. An increase in essential CO2 in the atmosphere will be a huge benefit to plants and agriculture. Satellite measurements show that the increase of CO2 over the last few decades has already caused a pronounced greening of the planet especially in arid regions. For tens of millions of years, plants have been coping with a CO2 famine. Current CO2 concentrations of a few hundred parts per million (ppm) are close to starvation levels compared to the several thousand ppm that prevailed over most of history.
