And that=E2=80=99s just as true of purported man made climate

Its obvious that climate does change, that=E2=80=99s obvious
from
the ice ages etc, but its much less clear how much of the
change we have seen is man made. It wasn=E2=80=99t that long
ago
that most scientists were hyperventilating about global
cooling.

Yes, we can certainly measure a substantial hike in
atmospheric
CO2 levels, but its much less clear how much effect that
actually
has on world temperatures, let alone climate change.

It's bloody obvious to me. We know there used to be more CO2
in the air.
And the world was perfectly fine back then.

There has been no time in the history of man when the CO2 levels
were as
high
as they are now.

Why does man have to be there?

Just a personal preference I prefer to not have man go extinct...
and am
none
too happy about man creating the current mass extinction we are in.

Surely you know that's not what I meant.

Yes, you were trying to pretend that man's influence is not well
understood
because in the past there were other times of high CO2, though there
were
other reasons and none of the times it has been anywhere even near as
high
have the changes happened so quickly.

You are working to push your intuition, based on faith, over the
science.

No, I was pointing out the earth survives high CO2 levels just fine
because
it did in the past. And that we would manage also. You do know how much
CO2
is required to kill you, right?

The earth will survive the harm we are causing...

Its far from clear that we are actually doing great harm at
all, particularly when compared with what the ice ages did.

We are in a great extinction, or at least likely so, and seeing the impacts
now. If you want to learn more about it this is a good site to get started:

http://climate.nasa.gov

but we are in a great extinction

Bull****.

There is some debate -- but it seems likely.

and it may end up including humans.

No chance. We even survived the ice ages.

The ice ages man made it through (the most recent one) did not lead to a great
extinction.

We rely on many other species

Only a few actually.

Quite a few... give how they rely on each other. And we benefit from many
more.



and the ecosystems we are destroying.

The ice ages destroyed far more and we survived that fine.

You are trying to equate all of the ice ages. The one man made it through was
not a big one.
