Saiwania wrote:It matters not if CO2 levels were much higher before today's levels, the issue is that it has been correlated with increasing global temperatures but remains in the atmosphere for an unacceptably long time, much slower than the rate at which humans are adding more carbon to the Earth's atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels.
Saiwania wrote:Humans weren't around when the Earth's CO2 levels were sky high and the climate that the dinosaurs thrived in for example, might not be one in which humans could survive in.
Saiwania wrote:Much of human civilization is dependent on the status quo not being disrupted in any significant way, especially with regards to agriculture or sea level rise.

The electricity produced from the coal burning will go to a bunch of automated mouse wheels
It'll be a mouse resort
