I for one am tired of the climastrologists and their unproven and exaggerated claims. I refuse to be taxed for CO2 and I believe it is a huge waste of time, effort and resources to be focusing on CO2. I would much rather the focus be on real and pressing issues like deforestation, habitat loss, wildlife conservation and real pollution.

To clarify, it's not just C02. It's Co2, Methane, and other "greenhouse gasses" that collect high in the atmosphere and reflect heat back to the earth.
I also partially agree with you that there is more to the problem than just CO2, and I agree that deforestation is also part of the problem. We need forests to absorb CO2 from the air and put it into the ground, right? Right. It's the combination of excess production of C02 into the air AND the reduction of forests together that is causing the problem.

I know. And not just those poor creatures... lots of others too. Very fucking sad.
