This presentation looks at climate change. There is no consensus that planet temperatures changes are directly attributed to man-made actions. The planet goes through cycles as part of its development. Climate is influence by many factors!

4. WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE
• a change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a
change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and
attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon
dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels.

5. WHAT IS CO2?
• Colorless, odorless, non-combustible greenhouse-gas that contributes to global
warming. Formed by complete combustion of fossil fuels (coal, charcoal, natural gas,
petroleum) and carbon containing products (such as wood), it is released also
through respiration by living organisms and by the gradual oxidation of organic
matter in soil. Although relatively non-hazardous, it can create lethal oxygen-
deficient environments in high concentrations (specially in confined spaces). It is
one of the greenhouse gases and, since over the last 200 years its concentration in
upper atmosphere has increased from 270 parts per million (PPM) to 350 ppm, it is
said to be the cause of changes in global climatic patterns.

6. IMPORTANCE OF CO2
• Literally thousands of laboratory and field experiments have conclusively
demonstrated that enriching the air with carbon dioxide stimulates the growth
and development of nearly all plants. They have also revealed that higher-than-
normal CO2 concentrations dramatically enhance the efficiency with which
plants utilize water, sometimes as much as doubling it in response to a doubling
of the air's CO2 content. These CO2-induced improvements typically lead to the
development of more extensive and active root systems, enabling plants to
more thoroughly explore larger volumes of soil in search of the things they
need. Consequently, even in soils lacking sufficient water and nutrients for good
growth at today's CO2 concentrations, plants exposed to the elevated
atmospheric CO2 levels expected in the future generally show remarkable
increases in vegetative productivity, which should enable them to successfully
colonize low-rainfall areas that are presently too dry to support more than
isolated patches of desert vegetation.

11. CARBON TAX / MYTH
• It is pretty sad that we have so many people believing the pro-climate people than others sources, why? How of those same
people do not know how Tides? http://www.tides.org/. Tide.org is pushing funding up to stop the oil sands, why?
http://habledash.com/political-insight/254-the-tides-foundation-the-heart-of-the-radical-left. It appears me this
organization has done some backing for Obama?
• Yet there are no comments from people to why the Greenpeace director spoke out about radical views of Greenpeace, why?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cA6WZ4SX_-0
• Yet we have people like Butts that will start at nothing to have no carbon in Canada:

• So, where do the LPC stand on oil shipments? It appears to me that LPC only interested in pipelines that do not touch LPC
held areas!!

12. BRITISH COLUMBIA – CARBON TAX
• https://www.fraserinstitute.org/blogs/bc-budget-acknowledges-the-carbon-tax-was-not-revenue-
neutral
Our recent study examining British Columbia’s “revenue neutral” carbon tax found that, contrary to
the provincial government’s promise, the carbon tax was not revenue neutral and had actually raised
taxes on British Columbians.
While the government initially dismissed our findings, Tuesday’s budget essentially acknowledges the
carbon tax wasn’t in fact revenue neutral and takes steps to correct the problem.

13. WHY CARBON TAX DON’T WORK

14. AUSTERITY IS ONLY WAY TO REDUCE GLOBAL
WARMING
• http://www.lfpress.com/2017/04/20/austerity-only-real-way-to-reduce-global-
warminghttp://www.lfpress.com/2017/04/20/austerity-only-real-way-to-reduce-global-warming
All forms of carbon pricing are cash grabs by government unless they
succeed in changing human behaviour.
Carbon taxes and cap and trade (a carbon tax by another name) do
nothing to address man-made global warming on their own.
They are failures unless they succeed in moving human behaviour
toward voluntary austerity.

15. FACTS
• CO2 is not pollutant, but the building block for life on Earth
• There is lack of both freshwater and clean water in the world. Water is key to life on the
planet
• Countries like China and India are using cheap acidic coal as well as poor scrubbers as part of
the air quality issues
• Many countries do an abysmal job when it comes to managing the economy and
environment
• CO2 gets all the attention, because it is easy to blame business. Yet water quality, air quality
and proper land management are all but ignored by scientist
• There is no consensus that climate change on the planet is being led by man-made action.
The planet goes through cycles based on the sun and the moon.
• Governments have done a poor job on areas like forest management, land management and
water treatment.
• Clean technology companies struggle to turn a profit
• There is no infinite source of rare metals, lithium and vanadium. Clean technology relies on
raw materials
