THE KHMER VERT

Remember the Khmer Rouge? They were the "red" Khmer, the commies, led by a homicidal homunculus known as Pol Pot. They killed off a substantial slice of Cambodia and starved the rest in re-education camps and the countryside. They created the killing fields.

The Khmer Vert, the "green Khmer" is my latest name for the commies using CO2 as an excuse to kill off many of us and starve the remainder.

They are now wailing that the atmospheric concentration of CO2 has reached 420 parts per million (PPM).

The illegitimate Biden regime held a virtual climate summit today to plan how to freeze us in the winter, broil us in summers, limit our mobility with useless electric vehicles, significantly increase the price of gasoline and diesel, and thereby raise the price of everything we buy in stores.

Lets do a simple math demonstration to explain their "science" of societal destruction:

1,000,000 PPM = 100%
   100,000 PPM = 10%
   10,000 PPM = 1%

Are you still with me? This isn't even algebra.

Now, it starts to get interesting:

      1,000 PPM =   0.1% or 1/10 of one percent
         420 PPM =   0.042% or 1/25 of one percent
         100 PPM =   0.01 0r 1/100 of one percent

So, the Khmer Vert claim that CO2, at an alleged 420 parts per million (PPM), is going to affect our climate? What have they been smoking? What possible greenhouse effect could be perpetrated by a gas at so minuscule a concentration? The only "Greenhouse Effect" I could believe in would be the little if any effect the leftist journalistic slant of Linda Greenhouse, a former writer for the lying New York Times, had on her readers.

Humans are not the only emitters of CO2, the gas of life. Volcanoes release prodigious amounts of CO2. Among human organizations, the U.S. Department of Defense is the largest single emitter of CO2 on Earth. The Pampered Princes of the 5-sided wind tunnel emit much more than hot air. Their vehicles, aircraft and ships go through "fossil fuels" like there is no tomorrow. Will there be any limitations on their profligacy? Don't count on it. Remember that war is the health of the state.

CO2 is the gas of life because it is used by plants to make O2 (oxygen) and sugars. The food chain depends on the products of photosynthesis. Except for the very few creatures that get their energy from sulfur (for example) all other animals are dependent on the carbohydrate products of photosynthesis.

The atmosphere of the primordial earth had no oxygen. Photosynthesis, first by cyanobacteria (blue-green algae), then by ever more complex plants, made ALL the oxygen we breathe. ALL OF IT.

Photosynthesis cannot occur below 180 PPM. This planet has had up to 7,000 PPM of CO2. That however, did not cause runaway heating. That was at the tail end of a prolonged Ice Age, the Cryogenian.

As I wrote in my recent mini Philippic, the "science" of global warming belongs in the same category as: phlogiston, spontaneous generation and an Aristotelian universe. At one time, scientists believed those things. They were fictions. We now laugh at them. Years from now, scientists will laugh and joke about the rubes who believed in anthropogenic global warming and "Climate Change."
