The more people, the more pollution, the MORE Global Warming. But for any one GIVEN world population, there are still other factors to consider like the RATE of using FOSSIL FUELS. Another factor is the rate of forest destruction. Certainly, the recent large forest fires in the US and Canada are adding to the excess CO2 which will rise up to the upper atmosphere and reflect HEAT back to the Earth.

What you meant to say is that the US Gov pretends that there really is a problem when there isn't. At least, not one that "they" can control. Sounds like a few folks on here are having a "red flag" moment.

More pollution doesn't equal more global warming. The temperature when dinosaurs roamed the earth was about ten degrees warmer and the oceans were several feet higher. But, keep thinking "the sky is falling" if it makes you feel better. Personally, I welcome the warmer weather and would like to see warmer weather up North in the mountains. I do not wish to see the gov. waste taxpayer money on trying to make the world colder. The air is much cleaner than it was when I was a child and that does work for me. However, I can live to the nice old age of 100 with the air as it is right now. My old man survived a century during the worst pollution time period in this country, and the air is much cleaner now.
But, everyone needs something to occupy their idle minds.:laugh:

Yes, of course. After all, there really isn't a European Union.....:1rotfl:
"The European Union ( EU) is a supranational political and economic union of 27 member states that are located primarily in Europe. [7] [8] The union has a total area of 4,233,255 km 2 (1,634,469 sq mi) and an estimated total population of over 448 million." ----- nope, won't happen in our lifetime..........:1rotfl:

More pollution of the CO2 type DOES equal more Global Warming. It is actually the KEY mechanism. Cars and furnaces burn fossil fuel and wood. (That burning is the MAN-MADE component of Global Warming) The combustion gives off CO2. (Also currently some volcanoes are giving off CO2) The CO2 rises and forms a layer in the upper atmosphere that reflects much of the earth's HEAT back to the earth which raises the temperature of the earth (note : some HEAT does escape off into space)
........The effects of man-made Global Warming have been observed by climate scientists to be increasing rapidly in about the last 8 years as recorded by tests like global ocean rise, coral reef deaths, and glaciers melting in BOTH poles.

The European Union is a long way from that conspiracy theory about a one-world government. We will ALL be dead before Russia joins the EU. (if EVER)

If more CO2 means more warming -- then why are we cooling?

Someone please change the needle, the record has stuck again!:icon_bored:
