It is...I saw your presentation at Wattsupwiththat. It is realy good, clear and succinct. Thank you.<br /><br />The one theme that is lacking in your presentation is that you don't question the hypothosis that CO2 and global warming will be bad for the planet. Plants need CO2, water, warmth and nutrients to grow. Higher levels of CO2 and warmer temperatures will promote plant growth that will certainly improve crop yields. I can't quote a proper study, but I believe the increase in farmable regions in the north will more than offset farmland submerged by rising sea levels. We know that we can deal with warmer temperatures, we can't deal with significantly cooler temperatures, so we should all be relieved that CO2 warms the earth (or at least doesn't cool it).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
