10,000 Tiffany Boxes

Imagine 10,000 little Tiffany boxes packed tightly together. As of a hundred years ago, 9,997 were the distinctive blue and 3 were green. As of today, there are 9,996 blue boxes and 4 green boxes. Some say that there will be catastrophic changes to the earth because of this one additional green box among the 10,000 boxes. Absurd, you say!

The Tiffany Boxes are an entirely accurate mathematical representation of the atmosphere. The one extra green box is the precise proportionate amount of the additional CO2 in the atmosphere now. CO2, of course, is absolutely necessary for plant and animal life to exist on the planet. And the evidence of the harm of C02 is questionable, to say the least. It utterly fails the test of common sense that such a tiny additional amount of a thing so necessary for life could disrupt the course of an entire planet; if the earth were truly that vulnerable to microscopic changes, animal life should have been long gone by now.

Yet the scam marches on. And why shouldn’t it, considering the quality of the researchers and executive bureaucrats running science policy in the US. Yikes!
