Only the mentally ill, or those who see short term financial gain, would suggest gambling human survival on the worst odd game in the casino.



Only the mentally unstable can't see the minor proportion of a healthy diet comes from grains. That most comes from other food sources. Take an oyster every week. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy




Digging yourself a hole, so to bury your one oyster shell a week.

Climate change is really bad news if you like oysters, scallops and clams

When it comes to carbon dioxide emissions, the first environmental problem that comes to mind is climate change. As humans pump more of this greenhouse gas into the air, the Earth gets warmer, and the climate changes in ways that could damage the economy, public health, infrastructure and society.

But along with climate change, these same emissions are causing another pernicious problem in our oceans. Some of the carbon dioxide we emit gets absorbed in sea water, where it turns into carbonic acid in a phenomenon called ocean acidification. As our emissions rise, the oceans will turn more and more acidic, irreparably altering aquatic ecosystems.

CO2 levels go up and down, only an idiot would say it is irreversible.
BTW we humans are not adding any more carbon in one form or another, to the system, than was there at the beginning.



Yet could a human civilisation exist in these early eras. The one you are happy for us to recreate with all this new unlocked greenhouse gas.

Tell me where they have documented "ocean acidification", not just a drift towards neutrality.  Don't forget the huge buffering of carbonates. Remember those White Cliffs of Dover? Now expand over all those things under the sea.

By the way a new paper on CO2 and Methane in the Arctic.

'

"The authors report that the net effect of draining in their study is an increase in the amount of CO2 emitted to the atmosphere, which will ultimately magnify climate change," Zona wrote in her commentary.

Zona published a study about the effects of drainage in permafrost earlier this year in the journal Nature Geoscience. Additionally, she and fellow SDSU ecologist Walt Oechel, along with colleagues at several other institutions, published another study last year showing that the emission of methane, another greenhouse gas, is highest in the Arctic during the region's cold season. That was surprising, as most scientists thought little if any greenhouse gases escaped the frozen soil during the cold season.

Sure enough, Kwon's recent study shows a similar trend for carbon dioxide.'

So warming temperatures are not the major cause of release of CO2 and Methane. So sad for the science activists. Embarrassed
