Because of world wide industrialization, all manner of pollutants were
concentrated and released into the air and water of our planet. In the
beginning the concentrations were low enough, or people could simply
move away from them so that it did not affect our health and well
being. Always there was an initial resistance by the parties involved
to clean up their messes, but eventually public pressure was brought
to bear, and the pollutant was either restricted, required to be
recycled or cleaned up. The clean air and clean water acts have done
much to make our air breathable again and clean up former sewer pits
like Lake Erie, where the water is so clean that sport fishing and
swimming is again possible. Even the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland,
which was so polluted that it burned when I lived there, now flows
clean into Lake Erie and has a National Park along its shores.

Carbon dioxide is the latest pollutant to enter the world stage. Why
is it a pollutant? the concentration of CO2 affects the net energy
balance of the Earth. It's really quite simple, each day the earth is
irradiated with a certain amount of energy from the sun (approximately
120 watts per square meter average), which heats the atmosphere and
makes it pleasant to live over most of its surface for bipedals like
us humans

You stupid,stupid creature and many like you,the major element for
habitable existence and the temperature fluctuations at different
latitudes,with the equatorial regions being least affected,is the
length of time a location spends in the orbital shadow/solar radiation
and not inclination to radiation as those who believe 'tilt' causes
the seasons have it.

Not knowing how to organise global temperature with seasonal
hemispherical temperature fluctuations at different orbital points is
a terrible omission for all the inputs are based on planetary dynamics
and not 'tilt' referenced to the Sun.You stupid,stupid people making
reckless conclusions on nothing more than a whim to satisfy a need to
move away from fossil fuels.

'Climate change' is not dangerous,the silly people like yourself
promoting it based on carbon dioxide as a global temperature dial to
the exclusion of all else are.
