Mann-made CO2 is the control knob for the universe. One of the things that it causes is aging, as clearly indicated by the graph below.
If we could lower CO2 back 325 PPM, I would certainly appreciate the opportunity to spend some more time with my first girlfriend Janet in North Hinksey.
I heard that if you breath only CO it stops the aging process all together.
Oh, you mean CO2 causes decomposition?
This is from Janet. Don’t bother! 🙂 I’ve moved on.
I looked her up online, and she doesn’t look the same as in 1970. Strange, because I haven’t changed a bit.
Nope, your picture looks the same as it did 6 years ago! 😉

Ever since the days of “a new ice age is coming now!” we have seen CO2 causes every damn thing on the planet. It went from a trace gas and plant food to the scape goat for all our woes. And yet, I have never seen any real measurements verifying all this supposed horror. Odd that.
Some day, this particular hobgoblin will be laid to rest and we can get back to trying to figure out how the planet’s climate really works.

I can hear Lysenko chuckling from the other side.
Ah yes – the angle of graphic inclination back then is a tad steeper!
I thought the CO2 increase was bowed the other way? At this rate we will soon see flat CO2 growth! …and live forever?

Turns out increased CO2 levels have caused my golf scores to balloon. Double Darn.
Just tell yourself it is all that CO2 causing the grass to grow faster. That fast growing grass then reaches out and grabs the golf ball.
That is the
excuseexplanation Obummer is using.(See I can think like a progressive.)
I am impressed!
I’ve noticed a corilaton between co2 going up and my money buying less
FLEE THE CITIES NOW! Cities have greater concentrations of that poisonous carbon dioxide gas than does the wilderness.
Want proof that carbon dioxide causes aging? How about the “uncontacted Amazon tribes” where nobody is over 35–the minimum age to qualify for the office of President of the United States of America. Compare that to the United States Congress, where its 434 Representatives and 100 Senators and copious amounts of carbon dioxide result in a tribal group larger than any one of the “uncontacted Amazon tribes”–and compare the average age of those 534 people to the pristine tribal average age.
Hey, I can be a climate guru too! Where’s my million dollar grant? Except that I’m using raw data instead of computer models (models that I have complete control over the output: remember the formula Garbage In = Garbage Out). Top Congress for the mathematical proof of GIGO.
does CO2 reach an asymptotic value once the oceans have belched up their load?
What if we are watching the death spiral of CO2, with lower peaks and lower lows? I would think that with CO2 slowly turning into limestone, we should burn all available fossil fuels to supprt life on earth.
