The Earth is believed to be 5,000,000,000 (5 Billion) years old.

Humans have been emitting carbon dioxide for roughly 200 years.

(200 / 5,000,000,000) X 100 = 0.000004%

SO IN .000004% OF EARTH'S HISTORY HUMANS HAVE HAD SUCH A DRAMATIC EFFECT THAT WE ARE CHANGING GLOBAL CLIMATE?

The veteran weatherman who visits my classroom each year agrees. The miniscule amount of climate data/history we have is in no way representative of the natural cycles Earth's climate goes through.

At least we are seeing a new global mindset in terms of environmental awareness and stewardship!

PS I could not reduce my emissions by 80%.
