Layman struggles with Science

[Mike Davis]

There is no such thing as well mixed and pressure does compress gasses. The problem is we do not have an understanding of the concentration of CO2 in locations where it is not being measured and those  measurements are questionable. I could probably accept any number as long as it did not go along with dire warnings of calamity. Because we can now measure naturally occurring compounds, which are believed to be toxic above a certain level, at lower concentrations then some claim catastrophe as a means to gain support /funding.
That sounds like the AGW fraud to me but it is also happening in the plastics and some other compounds by groups that claim to be research scientists. That is what happened to the Ozone hole theory which the Ozone thinning is a naturally occurring fluctuation. Of course it is more dramatic to say it is a hole and to blame some made up situation that gains the perpetrators better positions and increased funding for their agency / University / Organization. That guaranties peer support as the peers are looking for the next research dollar also.
Remember that the leading cause of death is being born!
People want to disregard the geologic contributions of toxic gasses and CO2 to the atmosphere through erosion/ volcanoes and other natural events. The contribution overrides the puny contribution by humans through construction, land changes, agriculture, and use of fossil fuels. Mankind imitates nature when attempting to make his life easier.
