Carbon dioxide emissions help tropical rainforests grow faster: Study shows trees absorb more greenhouse gas than expected
- Nasa study shows tropical forests absorb 1.5 billion tons of CO2 a year
- Rainforests absorb more than half of CO2 taken up by vegetation globally
- Scientists previously believed tropical forests emitted carbon dioxide
- Researchers claim their findings emphasize the need to protect rainforests from deforestation to help counteract human greenhouse gas emissions
A thought occurred to me the
other day about climate change and greenhouse gasses. (Yes, I
actually do think on rare occasions)
What if we are actually reducing greenhouse gasses too much?
Think about this; when the
hot summer sun is shining down, greenhouse gasses help block some of the sun’s
rays, thereby blocking some of the sun’s heat.
On cold winter nights, like right now, when the sun is not shining,
those greenhouse gasses help hold the heat in, and keep it from getting so darn
cold.
Now, before you disregard
that theory, remember that the “global warming expert” Al Gore, predicted that
by this time, half of the United States would be under water because global warming was
causing the oceans to rise. I do admit
that the oceans are, and always have been rising, but not due to global
warming. It’s due to things like soil erosion,
lava flow, and underwater volcanoes.
So
with all due respect to Mr. Gore, I don’t think he is any smarter than the rest
of us. I won’t go so far as to say he is
dumb or stupid though. After all, he made millions off of his global warming propaganda.
