Loading ...Yes , Colombia . Sorry to be so late in replying . Had a lot of distractions all afternoon and evening .
The students are easy targets of propaganda . They have never been taught critical thinking , and have grown to believe someone , somewhere has to take over the task of seeing to their needs . Few of them are either practical or realistic . Easily convinced by the false promises of Communism/Socialism and easily whipped up into a frenzy by false narratives such as the ‘threat’ of CO2 and methane , while ignorant of temperature effects on gas solubility in surface waters , the absolute need of CO2 for plant growth , and the immense effect of solar disturbances (sunspots) on Earth’s weather . They are also ignorant of weather cycle history going back thousands and millions of years . The truth is , there is correlation between rising temperature and rising concentrations of CO2 and methane ( and even oxygen ) in the atmosphere . But the causation is the inverse of what they are told . Higher temperatures cause off-gassing from global surface waters , just like the violent release of CO2 from a warm bottle or can of soda , compared to a very cold beverage which just ‘fizzes’ lightly when opened . There are vast quantities of frozen methane in deep , cold , ocean trenches (think methane ‘ice’) . Warmer currents can cause them to melt minutely and be released in small quantities from the water surface into the atmosphere .
AOC wants cattle ranching curtailed in America , but makes no mention of the hundreds of millions of (holy) cattle roaming freely in India .
