Although Climate Denial is dying along with the old white guys who are it’s principle purveyors, we still get gems like this.
I treated this one Lo so many years ago in the perfect video for 4/20.
and if you need more, see below…

“Climate Denial is dying along with the old white guys who are it’s principle purveyors”
Wackypedia has this
“List of scientists who disagree with the scientific consensus on global warming”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_scientists_who_disagree_with_the_scientific_consensus_on_global_warming
(Misleading title, since it only includes the denialst side of the consensus.)
The “scientists” are increasingly emeritus, former, retired or deceased and Wackypedia has trouble finding new ones, even resorting to Patrick Moore.
If I were on the committee I might have asked
Why did you specify green vegetables? Do you also like and is CO2 also good for purple vegetables? Red vegetables? (although tomatoes are botanically actually a fruit and radishes are only sort of red and only on the outside.) Yellow vegetables? Orange vegetables? Brown vegetables? Green vegetables that had turned brown? How bout green fruits?
(At this point he’d be thinking I’m about to run through different colors of fruits but I’d trip him up with a sudden tack):
Do you think my line of questioning is ridiculous?
(I suspect he would have said yes. And I could answer):
Not one bit more ridiculous than your comment was. And mine were harmless.
Hi Peter I am reading Bill McGibbon’s new book and highly recommend it. Did you see him when you were in Greenland? peace 2nn

Daryl … Only word that comes to mind is dildo.
How about the street version of “anal orifice”?
Apparently Daryl Metcalf is chair of the House Environmental Resources and Energy Committee (in the PA legislature). A few weeks ago his committee held an “informational meeting” dedicated to the principle that CO2 is good.
Here is an article in the Tribune-Review. The “I CO2” graphic is priceless.
https://triblive.com/news/pennsylvania/state-rep-metcalfe-to-host-meeting-with-climate-change-skeptic/
The “informational meeting” featured one Gregory Wrightstone, a hard-core denier who wrote a book explaining his theory.
Edit: that should read The “I heart CO2” graphic is priceless.
Wrightstone seems to be a piece of work, judging from his blog. (The URL is in that same “I heart CO2” graphic.)
What is not priceless (except fro the damage it does) is the BS coming from the Idso climate denial whores at The Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change http://www.co2science.org/
And I do mean whores—check out their funding:

Check this video out—-almost males me want to burn down my (neighbor’s) house to put more wonderful CO2 in the air

Quote: “Ebi’s team studied fields of rice that were saturated with CO2 levels equivalent to those we might experience in 2050. They found that levels of protein in the rice declined by around 10%, iron by around 8%, zinc by 5%, and B vitamins by around 18%. “These don’t sound like major changes, but when you think about the poor in countries who eat mainly starches, this will put them from the edge to over the edge and into nutrient deficiency,” Ebi says.”
Wrightstone should be careful what he wishes for.
Persons who believe we are heating the world suffer from hubris??? Total BS! Ignorant morons who believe they know better than the massed intelligence of the worlds science display obscene Hubris. Where is a pissed off god when needed?
Persons speaking BS at public forums should be called out. Can be as benign as inquiring if they ” have informed NOAA of its errors”, to the terms “moron” and “criminal.
All Wrightstone wishes for is a raise from those he whores for—-Heartland, The Center for the Study of Carbon Dioxide and Global Change, the NIPPC, and the fossil fuel interests. That’s all whores want—more money for the deed.
If CO2 is so beneficial to us, ask him where are all our glaciers going ?
“For anyone who says global warming is a farce, I would say let’s have this conversation in front of a disappearing glacier in New Zealand.

I started to (re-) watch your 2009 CDCotW video Don’t It Make My Green World Brown when it got to your breakdown of atmospheric content:”carbon dioxide, which is only 388 parts per million….”
With 400ppm well in the rear-view mirror now, I haz a sad.
I have to make a point of looking at the year of any report on AGW/CC because things have been changing so quickly.
