That's awesome. Except, you know, it didn't actually finish with WHY .04% is bad. Something you don't care about because it involves FACTS:

The burning of fossil fuels affects the concentration of CO2 in the atmosphere. Before the industrial revolution, the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere was about 288 ppm. We have now reached about 414 ppm, so we are on the way to doubling the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere by the end of this century. Scientists say that if CO2 doubles, it could raise the average global temperature of the Earth between two and five degrees Celsius. We are already increasing the amount of energy that bounces back to the Earth. Because of the greenhouse effect, this is causing global warming with its many destructive impacts.

But thank you for posting something showing WHY global warming is real 😂

I travel all over the world and everywhere I've been lately people note that the temperatures are higher and fresh water is disappearing.  Climate is changing all the time if you think about it.  That's not the debate.  The debate is how much humans contribute to it and what those consequences are.  Warmer temperatures might be desirable in some places.  Lack of water though could be a huge issue as we are starting to see along the Colorado River.
