Everyday we hear more and more about how 200 countries are going to save the planet from man made global climate change. We are told if we don't do something soon we will all die. We are told that we can change the global temperature.

CO2 makes up only 0.04% of the earths atmosphere. Plants need CO2 to live and thrive. From what I have been reading the school is out on how much CO2 plants use. If more CO2 means healthier well feed plants and more of them, then would it follow that more CO2 is being taken out of our atmosphere?

And can we really affect to amount of CO2 that goes into the atmosphere? I know we burn more fossil fuels and there are more people on planet earth, but if we tamper with the climate like the 200 countries want ( and I'm very doubtful they can change to climate) will we inadvertently hurt the plant kingdom and in doing so ourselves?

Should we be mindful of other pollutants we put in the atmosphere? Yes we should, but if CO2 is part of the food plants need to grow and thrive, then why would governments call it a pollutant? If plants turn CO2 into O2 for us to breath isn't that a good thing? Seems to me we have a bunch of Captain Planets running around to save a world that doesn't need saving.

The science is anything but settled, and to use faulty data smacks of putting forth an agenda that is something other than climate change.

The Paris accords on climate are nothing more than wealth redistribution on a global scale. The summit wants weather countries to fork over money to developing countries. Developing countries don't need our money they need our freedoms, free markets, and job distribution. Most of the money that would be extracted out of the global money grab would only go to politicians and the politically connected.

The one actor that has not been addressed in this whole charade, is the SUN! The SUN is the number one driver factor when it comes to global temperatures. What are they going to do about that? Send Captain Planet up there to make the SUN behave? Once again this is a money grab plan and simple and the global climate farce is the vehicle by which they plan to take it!
