Sorry, that stopped me in my tracks. You're wrong Tom. If you could show me a single data point that showed atmospheric CO2 levels what they are now in the last million years, I might be more prone to sitting on the fence.
If the oceans werent acidifying from CO2 absorption, the glaciers weren't melting, yadda ya... Not the end of the world but clearly a change that coincides with the last century.
I really hope this planet's CO2 sinks and buffers are more robust to our industrial age carbon pulse. And I think if you unwound your overly political affiliation with this issue and thought about it for a nano, you would too. There are two reasons you should think more deeply, profoundly, about this issue. Instead of playing juvenile "nyah nyah, it's record cold in Miami today"1 games.
