Al Gore to Rick Perry: Climate scientists aren't motivated by money

[OohPooPahDoo]

CO2 is not a dangerous gas, CO is. Without CO2, we wouldn't be here.

Your child like understanding of science is cute.

You mean give a small African country money just so I can produce a product because they aren't?

Pay someone to not be productive?

Sounds like typical liberal logic to me....

"it's not fair they have no money so make the productive give them money- global communism my fellow Marxists - a vision for the future."

Actually, my understanding of Cap and Trade is that it is the modern, read that Pope Al Gore, idea of indulgences sold by the Catholic Church 600 years ago. Quite a scam if you can get it pushed through Congress.

What the fuck does the pope 600 years ago have to do with modern society and modern asshats?

- I'm Nick

Do you know what indulgences were?

Do you know what Cap and Trade is today?

They are basically one in the same.

Six hundred years ago, the Catholic Church was selling indulgences that people bought as forgiveness of their sins. This was one of the major reasons we had the Reformation. People paid the church coin for a slip of paper that promised them removal of their sins.

Cap and Trade from the horses mouth:

Cap and Trade 101

The goal: To steadily reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions economy-wide in a cost-effective manner.

The cap: Each large-scale emitter, or company, will have a limit on the amount of greenhouse gas that it can emit. The firm must have an “emissions permit” for every ton of carbon dioxide it releases into the atmosphere. These permits set an enforceable limit, or cap, on the amount of greenhouse gas pollution that the company is allowed to emit.

The trade: It will be relatively cheaper or easier for some companies to reduce their emissions below their required limit than others. These more efficient companies, who emit less than their allowance, can sell their extra permits to companies that are not able to make reductions as easily.

The profits: If the federal government auctions the emissions permits to the companies required to reduce their emissions, it would create a large and dependable revenue stream. These financial resources could be used to achieve critical public policy objectives related to climate change mitigation and economic development.

Sounds like a new set of "indulgences" to me.

Your understanding is very stupid then.

And you are a partisan asshat... move along.

Sorry I just don't think you've read much outside of right wing blogs and FOX News.

On the contrary, I've been studying it for 20 years.

No it doesn't. You don't know what words mean.

CO2 cap and trade is much closer to the sulfur dioxide and NOx cap and trade system that has been in place for a couple decades now.

You get nothing of financial value in return for an indulgence. When you own a C&T credit, you own the right to discharge a certain gas or gases into the atmosphere in certain levels.

Yeah, right, I suspect you read more blogs than I do and most likely watch more FOX news than I do as well.

Didn't you know "Salvation Credits" are much more valuable than all the money in the world?

There's no useful knowledge to be gained from blogs or cable TV that can't be gotten from better sources.

Have you ever posted anything that shows you have any knowledge of anything at all?

The only posts I have ever seen from you say exactly nothing at all.

You post stupid shit like:

Life wouldn't exist without ozone, either, why don' you go huff on some of that stuff for a while and get back to us.

Your understanding is very stupid then.

Your child like understanding of science is cute.

You have 911 posts and yet have shown nothing of substance. Clearly, you cannot think for yourself.

Please get back to me when you have something of substance to say. I'm looking forward to that day.

No PhD, bachelors in geology/geohydrology, masters in hydrology/remote sensing/GIS.

**Without CO2 , the planet would be much colder, unable to trap the sun's heat.
**Powered by the energy of the Sun, dissolved carbon dioxide in water is used to make carbohydrates that plants live on. Oceans are the worlds largest CO2 sinks.
**CO2 is consumed by most plant life, with out plant life our oxygen supply would be depleted.

I'm surprised that anyone could think that we could survive without carbon dioxide. We are, after all, a carbon based life form.

Well then, put a plastic bag over your head and a rubber band around your neck and breath your own very safe CO2 for an hour.

I love analogies but yours displayed the typical progressive pathology.

"put a bag over your head"

Do you have any nice words for Oxygen?

Would you like me to list the other gasses er the composition of them?

So yeah, put a bag over you fuckingr head and somehow create some C02.

True, but we don't go around asphyxiating ourselves everyday either. H20 is not a dangerous polar molecule either but one can still drown in it.

We breathe air that is 21 percent oxygen, and we require oxygen to live. So you might think that breathing 100 percent oxygen would be good for us -- but actually it can be harmful. So, the short answer is, pure oxygen is generally bad, and sometimes toxic. To understand why, you need to go into some detail...

Well that idiotic post blew up in your face...

Junk science pays better, so I'm siding with Gore here... Qualified scientists who are willing to set aside science and say what the mass'a wants get taken real good care of by big oil and co.
