Don’t fall for the hoax

December 5, 2018 by Guest Post

By Clarice Ryan, Bigfork

Carbon is a solid black substance. Oxygen is a colorless, odorless gas.  Combine these two and you have CO2, a colorless, odorless non-toxic gas! There is no sound science to prove that CO2 produces global warming which in turn supposedly causes climate change. Carbon in the air? Where does this claim of tons of carbon being produced by combustion come from? Smoke in the air is simply unburned carbon unburned carbon produced along with CO2 (a gas) and H2O (steam-water). Forest fires release a lot of smoke (carbon) but controlled burning in power generation plants as well as blue flame burning for heat in your home, does not.

 So why all the commotion over how and where CO2 is produced? Under false pretenses governments are forcing the close-down of energy producing oil, gas and coal production along with mining. Without energy we would not have transportation, communication or manufacturing industries which provide all the things that make people happy and comfortable. Civilization would return to the stone ages burning wood, if available, for warmth.  

Wind and sun cannot, without government subsidy to economically, along with numerous other disadvantages, produce enough energy to meet all our needs. With the killing of above industries government cannot tax people enough to provide sufficient energy to perform all the jobs that support the economy. We must keep open our manufacturing operations and realize that CO2-caused climate change is nothing but a huge lie created by globalist schemers to control the entire world, the economy and its populations.

It’s just that simple! Climate has been changing, with or without people, since the earth was formed!

    Ignorant, and evidently, proud of it! We are so screwed!
