So earth has recycled its self 8 times is that what your claiming? šŸ¤£
Yes..."The interaction between the tectonic and the hydrologic systems causes constant recycling of the materials of the Earth's crust. Rocks are heated, metamorphosed, melted, weathered, sediment is transported, deposited and lithified, then it may be metamorphosed again in yet another cycle"
"The recycling of Earth's crust in volcanoes happens much faster than scientists have previously assumed. Rock of the oceanic crust, which sinks deep into the earth due to the movement of tectonic plates, reemerges through volcanic eruptions after around 500 million years"

if the cry was "clean up pollutionā€
we would be going in the right direction
but like the new definition of a ā€œvaccineā€[ by the follow the science crowd]
...we aren't

So what does this have to do with human induced climate change??

The point was earth will be fine..you all said it won't. I never said weren't causing any form of climate change, just your 'sky is falling' foaming at the mouth fit isn't an emergency

I like your assumptions of my actions! Foaming at the mouth! šŸ¤£
Your lack knowledge of somthing you don't understand is actually quite amusing!

Only smog really concerns me...even polution like microplastics, garbage patch, etc can get eaten pretty quickly by earths systems. Bad locations are localized really that only spoil that regions soil/water...yeah there's also a threshold tipping point for that, but i don't think are remotely close to it. We will start to reduce pollution sooner than it appears..imo

I'll try to explain..think about plume modeling software...a smog plume like hong kong, just constantly going...until it circumnavigates the globe, like a huge volcanoe blow...then you get a feedback loop, that just turns into a run away nuclear winter scenario.

Think about a city with no cars causing the smog!

I'll have a discussion with @Rgd respectfully today...you can watch from my ignore list
Just did that today myself for the first time in a _very_ long time. I normally don't like to do it, because I like to see the shit swirling around my feet _before_ I step in it.

But once you step in it, you know it's there, so there's no need to keep seeing it and wiping it off of your shoes. :)

You know, except for the occasional slip up, we're both doing pretty good around here this time... so far.āœŒļø:cool:

Not once have I said the earth won't still be here millions if not billions of years into the future. The life on it we are destroying!!
But you stick to your 500 million years of recycling that has nothing to do with our current climate and you over inflated ego and pretend knowledge of graphs that you have drawn on!!
Maybe stop sticking ya hand into dark holes too! šŸ¤£
