CO2 in our atmosphere is ~400 PPM. That amounts to 4 parts/10,000. .4 parts/1000. .04 parts/100 or .04%. That is the
same as 40 cm in a kilometer. fjlip you overstated atmospheric CO2 by a factor of 10. And to think that some are having a
meltdown because it might go to 45 or 50 cm/km. Its a trace gas and essential for life on earth. What a great thing to tax
punitively!

Awe inspiring to raise a mast and turn a drill bit down through the eons. Putting a number of years to the stuff you find. All during the planet's third atmosphere. Then figuring if the Earth an orange, how many micrometers of skin depth we can touch.
Don't have any answers, just humbled.
Wish the clima-tards (and the gross polluters) had some humility as well.

The question is, will the productive members of society feel sympathy for their self imposed plight, and help them? Or allow them to suffer the consequences of their own actions?
One side of this attack on civilization is not exactly noted for their compassion towards their fellow man. I wonder if they will get any in return. I expect they will. Although I'm certain that the opposite is not true.

When the cost of capital is virtually free, we can do all sorts of stupid irresponsible things with it which have no productive value. Such as housing bubbles, NFT's, solar farms etc.
But as that era comes to an end and capital has to be repaid Plus real life interest rates, investments will have to show an ROI again.
Mandates and subsidies and misguided government policies can only support that for so long..

Irresponsible is the exact word to describe the leadership that brought us to this point. The savers, the retired, tje responsible have been paying for this wild drunkin party, not Trudeau, not Pat Carney, no the savers.

Growing up in a fairly sparse country I became impressed as I realized how much fat there was in our civilization. Watching it get slowly rendered for the last several decades makes one wonder how much is left? I guess when a big portion of the population is a couple hundred dollars away from destitution the fat is mostly gone.
