List Of Rebuttal Arguments
Carbon Dioxide Levels Were Higher in the Past Therefore It Is Alright if They Are Higher In the Present More Carbon Dioxide is Good for Plants and Agriculture Human Carbon Dioxide Emissions are Small Compared to Natural Emissions Carbon Dioxide Levels are too Small to … Continue reading
Carbon Dioxide Levels Were Higher in the Past Therefore It Is Allright if They Are Higher In the Present
Skeptics like to point out that Carbon Dioxide (CO2) levels were much higher in the past and therefore, such large amounts would have little consequence in the present. Some even say that it will improve our environment. In order to … Continue reading
More Carbon Dioxide is Good for Plants and Agriculture
Skeptics claim that the Carbon Dioxide that is being released by the burning of fossil fuels is actually good for the environment. Their argument is based on the logic that, if plants need CO2 for their growth, then more of it … Continue reading
Carbon Dioxide Levels are too Small to Have an Effect on the Climate
Small things can have a large impact. Skeptics often times tell us that carbon dioxide levels in our atmosphere, compared to the other gases, are too small to have any effect on the climate. The assumption is that small amounts … Continue reading
Human Carbon Dioxide Emissions are Small Compared to Natural Emissions
Based on an article by John Cook at skepticalscience.com. Some Skeptics argue that human CO2 emissions are small compared to natural emissions, therefore human emissions are of no consequence. Humans emit 29 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide every year. In contrast, … Continue reading
Volcanoes Emit More Carbon Dioxide than Humans
According to many Skeptics, volcanoes release more Carbon Dioxide into the atmosphere than humans therefore, any human release of the gas is trivial and does not contribute to Global Warming. However, according to the United States Geological Survey (USGS), humans … Continue reading
