My previous 8 campaigns have never been to win
but to tell voters Sound Transit should've never been allowed to spend billions
adding Prop 1 extensions to Central Link. Now it's only a question of
whether it's the Northgate operation in 2021 or East Link in 2023 that
vindicate my concern.
This year it's to debunk claim fossil
emissions are an existential threat. That Al Gore's "Inconvenient
truth" is in fact a monumental lie. Ice core temperatures from four
prior interglacial periods were higher than current levels with 300 ppm CO2 far
lower than current 410 ppm.
That during those periods the CO2 level was
the result of increased out gassing from ocean when temperatures were warming
and increased dissolution when temperatures were cooling. Both warming
and cooling were driven by the Sun.
It was the Sun that raised temperatures and
CO2 levels after the last ice age, culminating in the Medieval Warming Period,
Little Ice Age, and subsequent warming prior to significant fossil emissions.
The increased fossil emissions have added to the Sun's impact on CO2 over the
last 60 years raising level to the current 410 ppm.
However it's the Sun not higher CO2 levels
from increasing fossil emissions that can significantly increase global
temperatures. The ~5 gigaton carbon (GtC) annual fossil emissions
currently increase CO2 by ~2ppm. If emissions averaged 10 GtC over the
next 50 years the additional 500 GtC would add 200 ppm raising the current
level from 410 to 610 ppm, or from 0.041 to 0.061%, still a tiny fraction of
the 96.5% CO2 that warms Venus.
My campaign and stopeastlinknow blog are to
expose the futility of adding trillions more in an attempt to limit global
warming by reducing that increase.
