Thanks, Rich. I continue to have exchanges with my friend offline. This morning I emailed him and included this text:
"There are five GW claims, as I see it:
1. CO2 levels are rising rapidly.
2. CO2 levels much above where we are now are leading to a warming of
the planet, primarily at the poles.
3. This is a "bad thing."
4. Humanity is largely responsible.
5. Actions to change this would be a "good thing.".
Your claim is that #3 is incorrect -- that CO2 level rising is not a
"bad thing." On #4 you have said nothing; on #5 you have claimed that
such actions would be a "bad thing," primarily on political/economic
grounds."
I continue to urge him to join tthe ASA list.
Have a good weekend.
Burgy
