Fill a glass with ice, as much as possible, then fill it to the rim with water. When the ice melts, will the glass run over?
Nope, the water level won't go down, as Jaguar proposed, either,
Greenland and Antarctica have a lot of ice that is NOT floating on water (unlike the ice cap in the Arctic ocean)
If/when that melts, expect some additional water to be added to the system.
Yeah sure thing.
You fugking idiot.
DumbFlave can't offer any rebuttal so he resorts to cussing. There ought to be an IQ test for the privilege of voting. This is one case where Sycamore is correct. DumbFlave forgot to take science in high school.
You can’t debate because your idiocy is your religion.
Same for Sycamore.
You’re fugking idiots.
I can't speak for Sycamore. I disagree with him about all things Biden.
Why are you too CHICKENSHIT to take my wager? Hmmm?
Since you can't think of any way to defend your beliefs, I hereby submit your next 10 posts:
Again, I suffer from lack of education. But do not growing plants take that CO2 in and use solar energy to remove the carbon and then release the oxygen? Kind of the opposite of what you and I do? We take in oxygen and emit CO2 I thought? I believe that is how plants find the material that is the bulk of their makeup. I barely got through school so help me out here.
Yes
Yes you suffer from a lack of education. CO2 is necessary for photosynthesis (plant growth). But too much CO2 can be poison for plant growth.
What is the percentage of CO2 now and what percentage would poison the plants? As I have said about my visit to Fossil Butte NP, they claim CO2 was 20 times what it is presently in the distant past and apparently gave rise to the abundant life that ended up being the sequestered carbon in our fossil fuels. Do you know what level would be poisonous and are we close to that level?

Currently, CO2 is .04% of the atmosphere. I read that in closed experiments, it can get up to 1% with beneficial results. It can go as high as 2% with only minor decreases in plant growth. Yes, it can be toxic but the toxic levels are many, many times more than what's natural. Ironically, part of the decrease in plant growth at higher levels is cause by too much growth which shades out the lower leaves.

Sounds like we aren't even close to deleterious effects from CO2 for a very long time. What do you think IndyCA35?

We shouldn't be wasteful or needlessly consumptive.....but CO2 is the reason for life on this planet.
These twats want to get rid of carbon. What about the carbon, nitrogen and water cycles???
What about using the carbon more effectively to grow crops?
Indy doesnt think. He reports lies as "facts" from what Trump explained to him was FAKE NEWS.
Yes, he answered me rather disdainfully I thought. He repeated my admission that I suffered a lack of formal education. Then he said too much CO2 can be poison for plant growth without helping to educate me by telling me how much was ''too much''. I have noticed on other discussions that he is rather haughty.

Liberals stick to the same talking points. I have read many opposing facts concerning global warming on this post by intelligent informed members. But wait I thought there wasn't enough evidence so now its called climate change. The Paris Accords purpose is to distroy the U.S. economy, we make the sacrifices while China and Russia carry on as usual. China shutdown its industry in Bjing for the olympics its that bad. Hunters, fishermen, outdoorsmen have done more than the libs. for the environnent through fées and taxes. Oh and I almost forgot there is improving technology to remove co2 from the atmosphère.

The more CO2 there is the more plants grow and the more O2 they produce. Kind of keeps things in balance.

They blame CO2 but water vapor is many times more responsible for the global temperatures. However, water vapor can't be controlled and taxed. CO2 possibly can be. There are many causes of fluctuation in the humidity of the air. None of them are controllable and they know it. They had to pick a gas that's caused by man, even though maybe 99% of CO2 is natural and not controllable. I did a search to get the percentages of the various gasses in the atmosphere and found that they have a neat trick. They leave water out and call it the 'dry air'. That covers up the water content that's something like 40 times more abundant than CO2. Many charts I looked at leave out water just like it doesn't exist.
The dirty little secret.
Worth repeating....from the rooftop!
What you forgot, Tarbe, is that CO2 and water vapor behave differently in the atmosphere.
Water vapor precipitates out very quickly.
It's called rain.
CO2 lasts for centuries.
The water vapor is constantly replenished and is in concentrations far, far higher.

IndyCA35: I heard from Rock Chuck on this. According to him we aren't even close to harmful levels of CO2 if I understood correctly. What do you say?
