TIME FOR CLIMATE LOGIC Hypothetical Conversation - Socrates meets Mr Smith, a strong believer in Climate Change The philosopher, Socrates, sought truth through asking questions. He might have employed the following line
of questioning to explore the subject of global warming.
Socrates
Nice to meet you Mr Smith. I hear you are very concerned about dangerous global warming.
Socrates
So the CO2 absorbed by plants is now being released from burning fossil fuels.
Mr Smith
Mr Smith
Socrates
Yes, we are facing an alarming prospect of a global warming catastrophe.
What gives you such concern?
Mr Smith Socrates
Emissions of CO2 from burning fossil fuels.
It must be so.
Socrates
You have observed there was no dangerous global warming prior to CO2 being absorbed to form fossil fuels, so how could the same CO2 now being released cause dangerous global warming?
Mr Smith
How were these fossil fuels formed?
I find the implication of your question provocative and disturbing. You should know there is a move to bring charges against you for corrupting youth with your philosophical questions.
Mr Smith
Socrates
Various plant forms grew, died and formed fossil fuels before and during the Carboniferous Period.
Was there dangerous global warming prior to the Carboniferous Period?
Mr Smith
Socrates
No. There is no evidence of dangerous global warming prior to the Carboniferous period.
So where did the carbon in fossil fuels originate?
Mr Smith
Plants absorbed CO2 from the atmosphere prior to the formation of fossil fuels.
Socrates
I am well aware that people are disturbed by my philosophical enquiries which reveal the truth with compelling logic and facts which refute long held beliefs. Our conversation has been no exception.
