Not sure but the oceans are water and a reef is constructed mainly from the the bodies of dead coral.

Could try typing the info into a search engine?

Or you could try possibly not being a lazy c u n t or I'll just assume you're making shit up shall I?

So all the sales of more economical cars, hybrid and electric have done fook all then!

No, it's just common fucking courtesy, isn't it?

Seems there may be no correlation between atmospheric CO2 content and the planet's temperature?



..and that 400 ppm might actually be low.

How can you tell without a scale?

And no mention of other factors at work.

I disagree. If posting is aimed at fermenting discussion rather than winning a point does it really matter?

As I am not a climate scientist I can only post facts from others that in theory may know better than me.

The fact the content has risen to 400 ppm may actually mean nothing. (my opinion so no link)

I suppose it depends if you want to ferment discussion or foment it.

How Are Coral Reefs Formed?

...and your answer is? Dippy.

Did you mention coral reefs in your post? No you didn't secondly coral reefs are not "dead" as you claim. Otherwise the GBR would not be dying. Hello. SMH

Do you have evidence to back a claim like that? No you don't because these vehicles have not been around long enough.

BTW dunce how is your messiah Alex "the performance artist" Jones doing?

Your image comes from a science denying garbage site.

This clown has been exposed on the climate change thread countless times as buffoon. Idiots like you keep drinking his koolaid.

(all a quote from the interweb)

Lots of stuff on the interweb about underground coal fires that all the solar, wind, wave energy stock market padding obfuscation won't solve.

Then there are forest fires and bush fires. Again lots of info on that as well.

I notice that on cloudy days here in Bangkok the local temperature is markedly lower so just maybe the cause of any extra temperature on the planet is caused by that large burning star "next door"

Frankly, a simple minded comment like that shows that you really don't even have a child's grasp of the science of weather, let alone climate.

Soot particles from coal fires form the nucleus that clouds form on.
So let's burn more coal if we want to cool the earth a little and feed the plants via co2

Sorry, did your one functional brain cell not comprehend that all of the foliage on the planet cannot keep pace with the rise in CO2 levels?

if plants cannot use it why do they pump it into commercial greenhouses at such high levels of 1000ppm?

For the majority of greenhouse crops, net photosynthesis increases as CO2 levels increase from 340–1,000 ppm (parts per million). Most crops show that for any given level of photosynthetically active radiation (PAR), increasing the CO2 level to 1,000 ppm will increase the photosynthesis by about 50% over ambient CO2 levels.

Are you really that stupid?

Where did I say they "can't use it"?

I said they can't absorb enough to stop it rising, you crayon muncher.
