The EPA’s Carbon Dioxide Pollution Myth is Totaly Busted

The Environmental Protection Agency has declared that carbon dioxide is a dangerous pollutant and have started regulating it accordingly. This move is totally stupid since the notion of carbon dioxide being an air pollutant is absurd since carbon dioxide is a naturally occurring atmospheric gas that is exhaled by people and animals and is used by plants. Not only do plants thrive on higher levels of carbon dioxide it is not dangerous because you breathe it in and out in every breath of your life with no affects.

Carbon dioxide is actually the most natural atmospheric gas for terrestrial planetary. The Solar system has three terrestrial planets with substantial atmospheres two of them Mars and Venus have predominately carbon dioxide atmosphere. Even Earth would have a nitrogen / carbon dioxide atmosphere if it were not for plants producing lots of free oxygen. So once again the idea of dioxide as a pollutant is absurd.

Ok so what about climate change or global warming or what ever the flavor of the week may be? Now if you ignore the fact that the computer models used to support man caused global warming make the thermodynamically impossible assumption that as the global temperature raises the amount of heat lost to space is reduced and if you ignore Climate Gate which shows that climate data has been manipulated. Even if you ignore all this and take the proponents of global warming at their word, they are only predicting a rise in temperature comparable to that of the Medieval Warm Period. The Medieval Warm Period was actually beneficial allowing the Vikings to reach America and helping Europe recover from the black plaque and producing increased food production and prosperity.  So once again carbon idea of dioxide being a pollutant is absurd.

So why did the EPA take such a ludicrous step? The answer is Cap and Trade. President Obama could not get congress to pass Cap and Trade; a scam that would enrich those behind the plan at the expense of the U.S. economy. After congress refused to pass Cap and Trade seeing it as a job killer during a time of high unemployment President Obama used the EPA to do get it by way of regulation. The EPA ruling carbon dioxide as a dangerous pollutant is President Obama’s way of doing this.
