I do love asking people that raise climate concerns if they’ve heard of Hunga Tonga! I golfed with an energy executive at PG&E Saturday. He’s working on innovative energy solutions to reduce carbon… never heard of it! I asked him if he thought that was odd given that we never stop talking about climate change here. We googled Hunga Tonga on the 5th tee box together. He didn’t have much to say after that.

next time ask him if he knows how much CO2 is in the atmosphere - most don't know that it amounts to a measly 4 one hundredths of 1%, which is tiny but the killer is that up to 95% is naturally occurring which there isn't much anyone can do about - then ask if he really believes that removing what amounts to a rounding error (1 one hundredth of 1%) wrt the composition of the atmosphere, of CO2 is really gong to have any effect on the climate - anyone with a brain will acknowledge that it is unlikely but those true believers will still claim that CO2 is the problem

I don’t understand peoples problems with trees. Trees photosynthesize oxygen. Do they not like breathing?

Wasn't all the CO2 contained in trees the reason Gates was going to cut down all the trees and bury them so they didn't add to the rising heinous CO2 level? What a moronic concept!

Forbes has an article about it, "Chop down the forests to save the planet? Maybe not a crazy as it sounds." but it's behind a paywall.

Plants take in CO2 to grow. They grow with the C (carbon) and breathe out the O2 (oxygen). We need plants for oxygen and plants need us for carbon.
