New NIPCC report admits that CO2 is not a pollutant

If you are around the same age as I am you may remember being taught in science class that humans breathed in oxygen and exhaled CO2. You may also remember being taught that plants breathed in this CO2 and released oxygen into the air. It was a naturally occurring cycle which was not only beneficial but necessary to sustain all life on the planet.

However if you are a member of the younger generations you have been taught something completely different: CO2 is a pollutant which is responsible for global warming and the impending doom which is about to befall the world if we do not take action to slow down CO2 emissions.

The EPA, under the Clean Air Act, is in the process of regulating CO2 as a pollutant in order to save the human race from itself, however the Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change has released a new report which admits that CO2 is not a pollutant, and is actually beneficial to the planet:

“Carbon dioxide is an aerial fertilizer that provides many beneficial impacts,” said Craig Idso, one of the lead authors of the report “You can look at thousands of studies – real world data studies that have actually been conducted that demonstrate beyond any doubt that higher levels of CO2 are going to increase the productivity of plants,” Idso said. “One of the overall important findings of our report is that atmospheric CO2 is not a pollutant,” Idso said. “It is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that offers many biosphereric benefits. “Probably chiefly known among all of these benefits is that elevated levels of atmospheric CO2 tend to increase the biomass and productivity of nearly all plants and ecosystems on earth,” Idso said.

Here are some more findings from the report:

• The ongoing rise in the air’s CO2 content is causing a great greening of the Earth. • Rising levels of CO2 are increasing agricultural productivity around the world, therefore increasing food security. • Terrestrial ecosystems have thrived around the world where temperatures have warmed, including amphibians, birds, butterflies, other insects, reptiles and mammals. • A modest warming of the planet will result in a net reduction of human mortality from temperature-related events.

The NIPCC is not claiming that global warming does not exist (I do) but rather that it does exist but it is actually a good thing in many cases.

Those who worship at the Alter of Global Warming are sure to attack this report as heresy to their beliefs, their faith, their religion, and their god (the earth), but what I gather from this report is this: Has there ever been a case where the separation of Church and State has been so needed? I do not push my religious beliefs on anybody, I think it is time they stop pushing their beliefs on us, with the help of the Federal government, especially when it comes at so great a cost.
