The End Is Near!


Pope Francis told some followers on Sunday that they should be prepared to meet God ... hinting that the end of the world is growing neigh ... see: Breitbart Article.

What!? Will we not have time to see the Chicago Cubs win a World Series ... or suffer through the coming global warming ... or enjoy Hillary Clinton making a further muddle of things?

The End is Near!


The UN is now having a cow ... CO2 levels in our atmosphere have now reached 396 parts per million which is about 0.04% (not even 1/10 of one percent) ... see: EN News Article. Isn't it clever of these blatherskites to express these things in parts per million ... which sounds big ... when the actual real percentage sounds so puny? Given this revelation, the rest of this UN's arm waving about carbon dioxide levels is just so much eye wash when one couples it with the fact that temperatures on Earth have not risen for the last 15 years at least. Why is this? Perhaps there are other forces at work counteracting the effects of CO2? And might we not be getting colder if not for the work of our life-giving friend, carbon dioxide?

I will concede to the UN's numbers ... that there has been an infinitesimally small increase in the amount of carbon dioxide in out atmosphere. So what? The thing that continually amazes me is that the plant life on our planet can convert such a small helping of its primary food into such a lush harvest. Can we not be grateful for that?
