re: #11 Sharmuta

Over 100 years ago, increased CO2 was linked to climate warming. This isn’t some new theory plucked out of nowhere to subjugate the human race with a sinister power grab. There is a long history involved, which is one of the reasons I continue to link to this:

The Discovery of Global Warming

The introduction gives a nice overview of the history involved, and there is tons more information linked on the home page for anyone ready to look at the science for themselves.

It’s also worth noting, in a very interesting foonote, that 1859 also was the year Darwin published On The Origin of Species!
