For all you alarmists out there, you are free to believe in what you believe i have no problem with that.
BUT the only evidence that CO2 is causing global warming and the runaway gren house effect comes from the IPCC and the Global Circulation Models (GCM).
It can't be proven empirically that CO2 concentrations in our atmosphere drive global warming or the runaway greenhouse effect.
Actually its the other way around temperature drives CO2 emissions and temperature itself is driven from the sun and its activities.
You know computer models are only as good as the information that is put into them and if its garbage in it will be garbage out.
There are many prominent scientists that have pulled the IPCC GCM's up citing that the the IPCC input values are eronous, because they attribute all warming to CO2 and the sun has barely any effects.
Apparantly the IPCC amplifies the value CO2, 40 fold compared to that of the sun.
And with so many other factors at play here like giving 10% of the carbon tax revenue to the United Nations.
The big polluters once they have reached their annual targets on Co2 emissions can just purchase carbon credits to show that they have reduced their carbon footprint.
And the fact that we are being sold into financial slavery thats every man woman and child with billions of Australian tax payer dollars going to overseas institutions.
Not to mention the hike in all energy including goods and services.
You have to wonder whether this is actually designed to clean of polution or give the rich another game to play on the stock exchange via the farming and selling of carbon credits by traders and speculators.
Are you guys prepared to reduce your standard of living based on a lie?
If we were going to have a runaway greenhouse effect dont you thin it would have already happened when concentrations where at 7000ppm.
And today many scientific papers say that if our current level of CO2 (390ppm) where doubled we would get an increase in the global mean average temperature of one degree celcius.
