Considering all we know about carbon dioxide and its effect as a greenhouse gas, you would think an overwhelming number of people would understand how much of an impact we have on the planet? Yet time and time again I hear “opponents of climate change” (which just sounds stupid so I put it in quotes) say that there’s no way we could possibly have a global impact… the Earth is just too big and our species too insignificant.
New rebuttal: Do you believe we put a hole in the ozone with chloroflourocarbons? Do you believe we’ve helped reduce that hole by agreeing to the Montreal Protocol?
I just want to make sure that we have no impact globally…
