No one needs to be a climate scientist or even to have a college degree to download the CO2 data from the Mauna Loa lab, analyze it, and see for themselves that CO2 from human fossil fuel emissions is not detectable as a trend, an anomaly, or significant deviation in the trend of net atmospheric CO2 concentration observed at Mauna Loa. High school math is all that is needed.

No statistically significant anthropogenic CO2 trend is detected in the net global CO2 concentration trend, despite the input into that ongoing trend of gigatons of CO2 from fossil fuels estimated to have increased 15% per year. Since the fossil fuel contribution is too small to detect in the overall trend, we do not have data that might inform whether the anthropogenic fraction is so small that it is insignificant, lost in the noise of the massive flux of global CO2 emissions and absorptions by nature, or alternatively whether the carbon sinks, sources and balance are adjusting to the injection of gigatons CO2 emissions of fossil fuels, or some combination of these two alternatives.

But, it is obvious that human CO2 and CO2 from fossil fuels are not affecting climate.

This needs to stay front and center in the minds of voting Americans. Reminder from last March. Democrats are pushing to give voting rights to illegal aliens. The duty of Members of Congress is to represent the citizens in their district, not illegal aliens. Democrats are representing people who come here by breaking laws, most of whom do not pay taxes but they do collect welfare. Democrats are representing people who are stealing your money and reducing the power of your vote.

Knorr, W. (2009), Is the airborne fraction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions increasing?, Geophys. Res. Lett., 36, L21710, doi:10.1029/2009GL040613.  (pdf at link below)

Abstract: ….” This study re-examines the available atmospheric CO2 and emissions data including their uncertainties. It is shown that with those uncertainties, the trend in the airborne fraction since 1850 has been 0.7 ±1.4% per decade, i.e. close to and not significantly different from zero.”

“Despite the predictions of coupled climate-carbon cycle models, no trend in the airborne fraction [of CO2] can be found.”

4. Results…. “The most important result is that inclusion of data uncertainties moderately increases the uncertainty of the trend estimate ,s. Furthermore, the use of the inter annual predictors (nN+vV) hardly reduces the uncertainty ins. The trend itself is either very close to zero (Versions 3 and 5), or slightly negative when using interannual predictors (Versions 4 and 6). In none of the cases there is a significant trend.”

…”Without the inclusion of ENSO and VAI in the analysis, the trend derived with data uncertainties is found to be very small, only 0.7 ± 1.4 or 0.2 ± 1.7% per decade, depending on whether the ice core record has been included or not. This is not significantly different from zero and in contrast to the previously published result [Canadell et al.,2007] reporting an increase of 2.5 ± 2.1% per decade, but obtained with de-trended VAI and ENSO index and withoutaccounting for data uncertainties. …”

“Conclusion[25] From what we understand about the underlying processes, uptake of atmospheric CO2should react not to a change in emissions, but to a change in concentrations. A further analysis of the likely contributing processes is necessary in order to establish the reasons for a near-constant AF [airborne fraction of CO2] since the start of industrialization. The hypothesis of a recent or secular trend in the AF cannot be supported on the basis of the available data and its accuracy.”

University of Bristol Press release issued 9 November 2009

New data show that the balance between the airborne and the absorbed fraction of carbon dioxide has stayed approximately constant since 1850, despite emissions of carbon dioxide having risen from about 2 billion tons a year in 1850 to 35 billion tons a year now.

This suggests that terrestrial ecosystems and the oceans have a much greater capacity to absorb CO2 than had been previously expected.

The results run contrary to a significant body of recent research which expects that the capacity of terrestrial ecosystems and the oceans to absorb CO2 should start to diminish as CO2 emissions increase, letting greenhouse gas levels skyrocket. Dr Wolfgang Knorr at the University of Bristol found that in fact the trend in the airborne fraction since 1850 has only been 0.7 ± 1.4% per decade, which is essentially zero.

The strength of the new study, published online in Geophysical Research Letters, is that it rests solely on measurements and statistical data, including historical records extracted from Antarctic ice, and does not rely on computations with complex climate models.

This work is extremely important for climate change policy, because emission targets to be negotiated at the United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen early next month have been based on projections that have a carbon free sink of already factored in. Some researchers have cautioned against this approach, pointing at evidence that suggests the sink has already started to decrease.

So is this good news for climate negotiations in Copenhagen? “Not necessarily”, says Knorr. “Like all studies of this kind, there are uncertainties in the data, so rather than relying on Nature to provide a free service, soaking up our waste carbon, we need to ascertain why the proportion being absorbed has not changed”.

Another result of the study is that emissions from deforestation might have been overestimated by between 18 and 75 per cent. This would agree with results published last week in Nature Geoscience by a team led by Guido van der Werf from VU University Amsterdam. They re-visited deforestation data and concluded that emissions have been overestimated by at least a factor of two.

“If humanism were right in declaring that man is born only to be happy, he would not be born to die. Since his body is doomed to die, his task on earth evidently must be of a more spiritual nature. It cannot be unrestrained enjoyment of everyday life. It cannot be the search for the best ways to obtain material goods and then cheerfully get the most of them. It has to be the fulfillment of a permanent, earnest duty so that one’s life journey may become an experience of moral growth, so that one may leave life a better human being than one started it. It is imperative to review the table of widespread human values. Its present incorrectness is astounding. It is not possible that assessment of the President’s performance be reduced to the question how much money one makes or of unlimited availability of gasoline. Only voluntary, inspired self-restraint can raise man above the world stream of materialism.” ~

“Socialism is not only, or even principally, an economic doctrine: It is a revolt against human nature. It refuses to believe that man is a fallen creature and seeks to improve him by making all equal one to another. It is not surprising that the development of the New Man was the ultimate goal of Communist tyrannies, the older version of man being so imperfect and even despicable. But such futile and reprehensible dreams, notwithstanding the disastrous results when they were taken seriously by ruthless men in power, are far from alien to current generations of intellectuals. Man, knowing himself to be imperfect, will continue to dream of, and believe in, schemes not merely of improvement here and there but of perfection, of a life so perfectly organized that everyone will be happy, kind, decent, and selfless without any effort at all. Illusion springs eternal, especially among intellectuals.” ~ by Theodore Dalrymple.  Theodore Dalrymple is a contributing editor of City Journal, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, and the author of many books, including Out into the Beautiful World and the recently published Grief and Other Stories.

It does no good to imprison those whom someone in government believes might become violent (i.e., red flag laws) if society does not fix the underlying problems that drive people to violence and insanity. There are not enough prisons or police. That is a recipe for violent revolution followed by chaos and anarchy.

Far better, cheaper, and more effective to jail the oligarchs and power-mad politicians who are designing such violence-inducing schemes like identity politics, “white nationalism” and “white supremecy” propaganda, equal outcomes, transgenderism, regime change wars, legalized prostitution, single payor healthcare, Antifa, migrant caravans and open borders, sanctuary cities and campuses, Agenda 21 and 2030, human-caused global warming, spying on all people in the U.S., targetting political opposition by the IRS, running guns to Mexican drug cartels and running surface-to-air missiles from Libya to radical islamists in Syria, bombing and killing innocent people for years by drones and then covering it up… murdering millions of babies by abortion, pedophile islands, enslaving tens of millions to welfare and unpayable debt incurred by out of control government spending, fiat currency. This list could go on.

All of the above and more is brought to you by so-called “progressives,” Democrats and Republicans-in-name-only. Why would anyone get upset? /s

Communism is a dream for the vain, the God-less who believe this life under the sun is all there is, providing them an excuse to erase the history of God, God-fearing men and evil God-less men so their evil can be done without guilt. The secular collective hive mentality is the arrogant graven image they hold before God and their dream is a nightmare. All of us alive today, and all who have ever lived except One, are not worth the life of a single unborn innocent in the womb. Communism is vanity.

PETITION ON GLOBAL ANTHROPGENIC HEATING (Anthropogenic Global Warming, human-caused global warming)

The undersigned, citizens and scientists, send a warm invitation to political leaders to adopt environmental protection policies consistent with scientific knowledge.
…

But we must be aware that CARBON DIOXIDE IS ITSELF NOT A POLLUTANT. On the contrary, it is indispensable for life on our planet.
…
However, the anthropogenic origin of global warming IS AN UNPROVEN HYPOTHESIS, deduced only from some climate models, that is complex computer programs, called General Circulation Models .
…
On the contrary, the scientific literature has increasingly highlighted the existence of a natural climatic variability that the models are not able to reproduce….

This natural variability explains a substantial part of global warming observed since 1850…

The anthropogenic responsibility for climate change observed in the last century is therefore UNJUSTIFIABLY EXAGGERATED and catastrophic predictions ARE NOT REALISTIC.
….
Climate simulation models do not reproduce the observed natural variability of the climate …

It should be remembered that the heating observed since 1900 has actually started in the 1700s, i.e. at the minimum of the Little Ice Age. …

All the evidence suggests that these MODELS OVERESTIMATE the anthropogenic contribution and underestimate the natural climatic variability, especially that induced by the sun, the moon, and ocean oscillations…

In conclusion, given the CRUCIAL IMPORTANCE THAT FOSSIL FUELS have for the energy supply of humanity, we suggest that they should not adhere to policies of uncritically reducing carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere with THE ILLUSORY PRETENSE OF CONTROLLING THE CLIMATE.
