10,000 in motorcycle helmets is measured but is not considered healthy (CO2 and O2 Levels in Integrated Motorcycle Helmets) 40,000 in exhaled breath used for CPR is not the ideal but is what is available and is better than nothing. Exhaled air at 40,000 is not what is chosen when bottling air for emergency situations. In those cases, "standard" air at 400 is used or straight O2 (at 0) is used.

We know the planet is heating up. We know that it is heating faster than it normally would. We know that humans are populating, polluting and plundering the planet. Huge areas of the planetary habitats and ecosystems are being systematically being destroyed by human endeavors. Short term thinkers wanting short term comforts try everything they can to deflect from the reality that humans are at the root of the planets woes, exacerbating global warming, poisoning earth, air and sea. We see the change in positions, from denying that global warming is real to acknowledging it but denying that it is a problem or that humanity plays any role. Little by little, step by step, as the truth becomes undeniable, there will still be some who will refuse to accept it. All is not right in the world, and we broke it. It's up to us, all of us, to become big boys and girls, accept we have a problem. Then, maybe, just maybe, we can try to fix it. My time is getting short. I can't do much but be honest with myself and make some easy and practical changes. Oh, and cheer on the truth tellers. |

No one ever claimed the climate was static. Our planet has had hot periods and cold periods. But always the changes were totally the work of natural forces. This time though, the forces of nature have, unexpectedly, have had a little extra help from (drum roll, please) Humanity! We are one interference clinging to one leg of that wobbly tightrope walker. The more of us there are, the more interference we create, causing the more farther out of balance things get. |

"Our climate was never in balance -- which is why the climate keeps changing. "
In thermodynamics; we'd say it is impossible to have equilibrium (balance), because we are not in a closed system. Yes, seems like we're currently on a positive trajectory of climate changing. Lucky, blessed, or a little of both? Last edited by gorillarick; 12-07-2024 at 08:37 AM. Reason: add |

This would seem to show that fewer famine deaths are due to fewer children to begin with.... and according to your interpretation of the data, all because of increasing CO2.

Reminds me of the old joke about the guy who was warned about he coming flood, but he refused to evacuate. "Jesus will save me"; he said. When the water reached his front door, a swamp buggy came by and offered to take him to safety. "Jesus will save me", he said. When the water filled the first floor of his house, a boat came by and offered to take him to safety. "Jesus will save me", he said. Finally, the flood drove him onto the roof. A helicopter came to save him. "Jesus will save me", he shouted. When he asked Jesus, "why didn't you save me?" Jesus said "I had the weather service warn you. And I arranged the swamp buggy, boat and helicopter." Please consider me, and others like me, to be the weather service. Disagree if you wish. |
