Myths?

Controversy over "climate change" hasn't ended. UK's The Guardian says that certain myths about the issue should be exploded. No one will agree with all their points.

But I like this reminder:

Green plants take in carbon dioxide and emit oxygen. Animals breathe in oxygen and emit carbon dioxide.

Say that carbon dioxide (CO2) really is increasing at a dangerous rate because we burn fossil fuels. Or disagree. Either way, earth would benefit from more trees, which absorb large amounts of CO2. So I'd like to see both Savory's and Fletcher's efforts pursued and supported.

More of the article's claims - polar ice isn't necessarily shrinking, humanity will not necessarily be worse off if temps increase, most scientists do believe human activity is warming the planet.
