CO2 As An Energy Source

Some insight about extreme weather from New Jersey

“Global warming loads the dice for extreme weather,” said Whitney Larsen of
Environment New Jersey, which issued the report to promote its goals of maintaining a state energy plan under the Christie administration, and pushing for a federal car mileage standard of 60 miles per gallon by 2025.

“With increasing greenhouse emissions, there’s going to be more energy in the
(climate) system,” said state climatlogist David Robinson of Rutgers. “There’s going to be a tendency to see more of this, if the models hold true.”

All these years believing in the law of conservation of energy, and now I find out at this late date that CO2 is actually an energy source. Maybe they can power those 60 mpg cars off CO2!

I also understand now why the weather in the Arctic is so mild. It is because there is less energy in the Arctic climate system than say,  Hawaii.

What is a “climatlogist” anyway?
