Fact #1
Fact #2
The warming effect of each molecule of CO2 declines as its concentration increases
Fact #3
First and foremost, CO2 is plant food.
Fact #4
In the last four glacial advances, the CO2 level was dangerously low.
Fact #5
CO2 emissions began accelerating in the mid-20th century
Fact #6
Our current geologic period (Quaternary) has the lowest average CO2 levels in the last 600 million years
Fact #7
Current CO2 levels are near record lows. We are CO2 impoverished.
Fact #8
More CO2 means more plant growth.
Fact #9
More CO2 helps to feed more people worldwide.
Fact #10
Modern warming began more than 300 years ago…
Fact #11
Melting glaciers confirm modern warming predated increases of CO2
Fact #12
Rising sea levels confirm modern warming predated increases of CO2
Fact #13
Temperatures changed dramatically during the past 10,000 years. It wasn’t us.
Fact #14
Interglacials usually last 10,000 – 15,000 years. Ours is 11,000 years old.
Fact #15
The last interglacial was 8°C (14°F) warmer than today. The polar bears survived. Greenland didn’t melt.
Fact #16
The current warming trend is neither unusual nor unprecedented (Part 1).
Fact #17
The current warming trend is neither unusual nor unprecedented (Part 2).
Fact #18
Earth’s orbit and tilt drive glacial-interglacial changes.
Fact #19
We are living in one of the coldest periods in all of Earth’s history.
Fact #20
For most of Earth’s history, it was about 10°C (18°F) warmer than today.
Fact #21
IPCC models have overstated warming up to three times too much.
Fact #22
For human advancement, warmer is better than colder.
Fact #23
CO2 increase is enhancing corn production… a lot
Fact #24
An “ideal” temperature is not that of 150 years ago
Fact #25
