Introducing 'freedom gas' – a bit like the 2003 deep-fried potato variety, only even worse for you

Re: Sleep is a Good Thing(TM)

I hate to break it to you but people are cutting down forests at an unprecedented rate. Mostly in countries you have probably never visited. So the capacity of vegetation to remove CO2 from the atmosphere is reducing not increasing.

So CO2 output is growing and the ability of plant life to absorb it is shrinking. Plus it was posted earlier that it's not even close to enough to absorb the current CO2 output every year.

Crisis is a reasonable label for that situation.

I've been avoiding thinking about it for a few months, and it's not a nice feeling to be typing this post. Thanks a lot denialists for making me think about this again.
