Holy crap.
Gaia is really trying to get our attention.
New record for named storms the year of Trump and Trump's COVID response failure. Hurricane Iote is now a Cat 5 hurricane.

Iota is now the 30th named storm of this active 2020 Atlantic Hurricane season, the most ever for an Atlantic hurricane season.

By default life sequesters carbon. Gaia created man to return the carbon to the atmosphere from whence it came.
And, of course, the NOAA hurricane records show no impact on frequency or strength from warming. Yet, the Dem media continues to perpetuate that myth, and morons continue to fall for it, despite the scientific evidence against them.

Socialism is just the modern word for monarchy.
D.C. has become a Guild System with an hierarchy and line of accession much like the Royal Court or priestly classes.
Private citizens are perfectly able of doing a better job without "apprenticing".

The natural carbon cycle, at broad scales, takes hundreds to thousands of years to reach equilibrium.
We are overloading the atmosphere with carbon which had been sequestered in underground petroleum deposits for millions of years. The carbon we overloaded the atmosphere with is not going to recycle to an equilibrium with the biosphere and geosphere for a very long time.
And that is exactly why we have to prepare for an atmosphere overloaded with CO2 for the foreseeable future - the next couple of centuries at least.
