By mentioning the concept that reducing CO2 levels will serve to take action against an unsatisfactory climate,
If the effect of CO2 levels on our climate is negligible, the effect of human activity on changing those CO2 levels is also negligible.
the Commission is ignoring the factors that really do change our climate.
- The galaxy: in the form of Cosmic Ray fluctuations. Can induce changes of 10o C over millions of years.
- The solar system: Gravitational pulls can induce changes of 2-3o C.
- The sun: Its variations of orbit and tilt along with its five separate documented cycles
can the cause earth’s temperature to vary by up to 5o C. - Ocean Currents.
- The 'Greenhouse' gas: Water Vapour, in the form of cloud cover.
If the effect of CO2 levels on our climate is negligible, the effect of human activity on changing those CO2 levels is also negligible.
