C A R B O N D I O X I D E S ~ An Acrostic Sonnet

BRIAN & ANGELA

 

 

C ARBON DIOXIDE ~ molecules everytime we exhale

A BILLION  more CO2 molecules ! Am I ~ are You

R ESPONSIBLE  for Global warming ?  Not really 

B ECAUSE  all the CO2 that You and I breath  

O UT  is breathed in by the leaves of green plants 

N OTHING  changes ~ CO2 levels should stay level !

 

D IRECT  masurement shows otherwise ~ and since The

I  NDUSTRIAL  Revolution CO2 levels have increased from 

O NLY  250 ppm* to 400 ppm* and rising like the notes on a 

X YLOPHONE !  Is it a Chinese Myth ~ this increased Global warming ?

I  DON'T  think so ~ average Global Temperatures have risen by 1C

D ONALD TRUMP  knows this ~ but says AMERICA FIRST ~ because he

E XPECTS  CO2 control to restrict growth of American Industry ! 

S O DONT  stop breathing ~ but WALK and never ever FLY !

 

Thanks for visiting ~ comments welcome ~ Love BRIAN XOX

 

*ppm = parts per million. CO2 is a Green House Gas

and traps and reflects heat back to Planet Earth.

This is the prime cause of Global Warming.

    Will we ever learn that we are destroying our planet. Good write.

    • BRIAN & ANGELA

      I agree ANDY ~ please see my detailed answer to DS / KS above ~ thanks BRIAN

    • orchidee

      A fine write B.

      • BRIAN & ANGELA

        Pleased you enjoyed it STEVEN ~ alas it is based on Scientific Truth ! Please see my detailed answer to DS / KS above ~ Thanks BRIAN

        Some learn others refuse to - Put our Planet First said Macron - I fear for our children's children.

        • BRIAN & ANGELA

          Thanks MICHAEL ~ \"When will thy ever learn ?\" \"When will the ever learn ?\" Yes indeed I will tell DT that Planet Earth is infinitely more important than any individual Country ~ even the USA. Almost it make me afraid to procreate ! Your GRANDCHILDREN could well be alive in 2100 when alas the may be no EARTH for them to inherit not even £100,000 ! I fear it may already be too late ~ you cant just scrub the CO2 out of the atmosphere and you can\'t refreeze the ice caps. Scientists talk about 2050 as being crucial ~ to restore equilibrium. Personally i think it was 1950 and since then we have done TOO LITTLE ~ TOO LATE ! BRIAN Please see my detailed reply to DS /KS ~ Thanks B.

          The melting ice has destabilized the Earth axis . No longer does the sun set due west but has moved 3° Northwest . The sun now shines 3° degrees more on the north and south pole which will increas faster melting of ice . Which in turn may result in more of the Earth turning on it's axis . If it moves just 2° NW more all ice on planet earth will melt . Sea level will rise displacing 80% of the worlds population .

            Thanks for that FRIEND ~ MANKIND was given charge of the EARTH by God ~ but we have been greedy and ignored the signs and are now facing the consequences ! The balance in the CYCLES (especially the Water Cycle) are very finally tuned. Most people don\'t really understand Ecology etc ~ and some like TRUMP have the power to be GLOBALLY STUPID. Thanks for you comment ~ WE HAVE BEEN WARNED ~ AMEN ~ BRIAN

            Nicely done. Flatulance from the cattle industry. Let's cut down all the trees in South America and grow cows.

              VERY DROLL ~ but in a converse way you have reminded us that all ANIMALS ~ exhale CO2 (and methane) which are both Green House Gasses ! All plants on the other hand absorb CO2 ~ and for thousands of years CO2 levels were level at about 250 ppm ~ now it's 400 ppm and rising ! ! But its not only Technology ~ We are chopping down trees ~ everywhere ~ and people want high protein diets so we are indeed replacing the rain forests with CATTLE ~ WOW ! BRIAN
