Climate Change -- conspiracy theory or is it time we all drive a Prius?

Not Iran.

"Condition Critical: Desertification Threatens To Turn Iran's Future To Dust"

"The desertification of Iran is occurring at a staggering pace, with officials last month warning that more than 1 million hectares of the country’s territory -- roughly equivalent to the size of Qom Province or Lebanon -- is essentially becoming uninhabitable every year."

That is an area 2.5 times larger than Rhode Island, turning into desert every year in Iran.

1 Hectare = 2.47 acres

Nitrogen intake of plants could be the bottle-neck but definitely not CO2.

That's a fairy tale to get money.


Plant more nitrogen fixers, like legumes.

Then catch rain water using swales and other catchment areas to refill aquifers.


But sure, anytime soil is neglected (not covered and/or tilled) and/or water catchment areas not installed for when it rains, the soil will erode.

Plant roots need "living" soil.

Carbon Dioxide Fertilization Greening Earth, Study Finds

Apr 26, 2016

From a quarter to half of Earth’s vegetated lands has shown significant greening over the last 35 years largely due to rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide, according to a new study published in the journal Nature Climate Change on April 25.

An international team of 32 authors from 24 institutions in eight countries led the effort, which involved using satellite data from NASA’s Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer instruments to help determine the leaf area index, or amount of leaf cover, over the planet’s vegetated regions. The greening represents an increase in leaves on plants and trees equivalent in area to two times the continental United States.

These supposed green folks need to learn how to catch and store their excess water and plant nitrogen fixers because eventually, they'll take federal emergency money (financed at higher rates) and blow it.

A huge amount of water in California just flowed into the sea.

They don't even know how to catch normal precipitation and store it because they're focused on something completely different - CO2.

Whomever originated the CO2 scam, likely didn't calculate photosynthesis of plants into the equation.

Plants thrive with additional CO2.

It'd be a much easier argument to make if plants hated CO2.


If we keep burning fossil fuels, all the deserts on Earth could vanish.

They counted on the people who believe in the whole scam being the least intellectually curious group. Just influence the kind of people who do as told no questions asked. And it is working for them so hard to blame them.

As Dr. Michael Mann, Presidential Distinguished Professor in the Department of Earth and Environmental Science at the University of Pennsylvania and director of the Penn Center for Science, Sustainability, and the Media (PCSSM), told me yesterday:

“It is rather ironic that many of the states that are seeing the worst climate change impacts—Texas, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, and Florida—are red states, with governors and legislatures that are far more interested in doing the bidding of polluters than representing the people they’re supposed to be representing.

“Unsurprisingly, these states are all among the lowest when it comes to per capita spending on public education. The alliance of rightwing politicians and polluters prefers a poorly educated electorate, ignorant of the environmental health damage being done to them.”

What an idiot. I guess they did not have weather in these parts before the global warming scam was invented?

A perfect example of why more and more people are skipping college. Who wants to be taught by such an uninformed bigot like him?

Wah Wah Wah! Baby

No crying. Just pointing out a bigoted post. And the wasteland colleges are becoming when they have profs like this on staff.

Yeah, as long as the person's happy, etc.
