Article seems in bad faith at best, light airy prose by anonymous Mr Cloudman.

At this point I don't see the cause of eCO2 as relevant - although the source seems clear-cut. The fact it is rising so fast means it will directly harm human health within 30 years (if it is not already occurring) is reason to act.

With human blood ph changes, slowed cognition, reduced durability of concrete, falling food-plant nutrition, and increasing plant flammability as just a few examples. Most of these already happening. It was only 'fertiliser' when it was <280ppm. Why would we not act? Links available.

Hi, Mr Cloudman here.

Your comment rather misses the point. The alarm is primarily about rising temperatures and the effects of that. I note you didn’t engage with this at all but rather changed the topic to something else — which is a typical diversion tactic!

As such there’s nothing really to reply to, unless you’re saying you accept there’s no link between Co2 levels and temperatures.
