Aviation generates about 5 percent of the world’s greenhouse gas emissions but their warming effect is up to four times greater at high altitudes according to Jonathan Leake writing last weekend in The Sunday Times.
The article entitle, 'A green snag they emitted to mention...' suggests that environmental leaders are amongst the highest greenhouse gas emitters in the world because they like flying to exotic locations for their holidays and conferences. According to the article:
"Among those with the highest air miles is Bob Napier, chief executive of WWF, formerly the World Wildlife Fund, one of the best-known environment groups. In the past 12 months he has visited Spitsbergen, Borneo, Washington, Geneva, and Beijing on business trips and taken a holiday in the Falklands, generating more than 11 tons of carbon dioxide. A typical British household creates about six tons of CO2 a year."
And did anyone notice how many planes Al Gore got on and off, and how many places he boasted he had visited to give that lecture, in that movie 'An Inconvenient Truth'. I lost count.
Anyway, someone sent me this link to a piece published by USA Today entitled 'Gore isn't quite as green as he's led the world to believe'.
It doesn't add up the plane trips, but it does suggest that Mr Gore is another one of those environmental leader who doesn't practice what he preaches.

So the ancient texts have been fabricated. I suppose only what is seen through Luke's eyes is real. That means all the nonsense about global warming is also projection, because only Luke can read it as his reality.
Getting back to the debate, what is wrong with CO2 in the atmosphere? Remember at school we were taught that gases don't accumulate, they progressively dissipate. Space is infinite, remember?
Ha you've been fooled. It's a projection. The ancient texts have been fabricated. It does not exist.
Rog - only "may" - extreme duty of care and not so the reference stations.
