462 CDLXII, There are two ways that I see "the Earth" One) the planet that started life! or Two) the Earth today!

These are not just two "Earths" there were many, but separated by a million different things that had to happen for mankind to be able to both, be here, and survive on this Earth that we are just coming to understand a small part of! Extinction events have been quite common on this planet, Many times wiping out 80% of what was on the planet. Sometimes affecting the whole planet, sometimes just what's on the land. The Great Oxygenation Event, took perhaps 300,000,000 years to truly change over 90% of the life on the planet. Can we consider that an extinction event or an adaptation event? Right now I am talking to several people via the internet, that are so positive that the planet has reached a point that we can not come back from. Yet tell me I do not understand anything. That we and the planet are either doomed or facing massive living changes in the near future, and nothing that I explain to them could possibly be right, yet they respond so quickly to me emailing them that they could not have even taken the time to read my lengthy post before responding? First words are normally something about the scientific process and if we can not repeat observable knowledge, we can never know if it is right! But we can see smokestacks and car exhaust, so they must be the answer! First life on the planet is not something that we now have the ability to repeat, there have been experiments using old knowledge, and lightning but nothing like what the atmosphere was like 3.5 billion years ago. How do we start reconstructing an atmosphere 100 times as thick as now with 96% of it made up of carbon dioxide, and the remaining 4% of what we can only guess at using knowledge from probes in Venus's atmosphere that only survive minutes? With no knowledge of temperatures on land, or water if life started deep under the oceans using the planet's internal heat? Just so many unknowable, but does that mean we therefore must use completely unrelated scientific test's just so that we can repeat these tests over and over a million times on what is happening now? Of course not! Yet that is exactly what scientists have been doing for the last couple of decades telling us just how much damage to the planet mankind has created by using fossil fuels! Instead of finding ourselves in the middle of the "next great extinction event" that has been 3.5 billion years in the making. Carbon Sequestration and all other materials that have also been removed from what life needs to continue! Plus, a 35% stronger Sun, plus much less active plate tectonics, Pus the creation of so many extra arid and semi-arid areas of the planet greatly reducing the temperature-regulating-abilities of the planet. And how many other reasons that I have failed to understand, yet perhaps others have quantified without putting it into the context of the need to be included in this extinction event, that we are simply too "close" to be able to recognize! Daniel James Kadavy and the author of a 12-page paper that explains what our planet is facing in terms of the planet's last extinction event, "Life cycle of a planet"

Global Warming and Climate Change} Lost of available carbon vs. too much C02 in atmosphere!

Global Warming and "The life cycle of a planet" By Daniel Kadavy  402-890-7946  Cortland Nebraska                                                                                                                                                                                                                The planet is running out of carbon, which is the mainstay of all life on the planet! Something has to be done to mitigate this. And yet Global Warming is changing ...

503 DIII Humanity is the only species that have to pay to live and survive. while there are a few exceptions to this rule, they are few and far between!

What does that say about how we live? It means that we have very little say in most aspects of our lives if we wish to live in a house, we must pay for that privilege with taxes, energy, insurance, maintenance, and keeping the standards that each place puts upon the owners, cutting grass, moving snow, and so many other requirements to fall within acceptable parameters of society! We must obey laws we may disagree with, nor have any input in their adoption or application! While there are many different arrangements of governments around the world, even the ones that are voted in or out of power by the masses are never truly fair in explaining to their constituents what they are going to attempt to do if elected! Yet this is the world we live in while we attempt to understand what 3.5 billion years of carbon sequestration have forced our planet to go through, including almost every single extinction event that has occurred in the history of our planet!  So the problem that we face is...

CCLXXIV Global Warming and Climate Change} Let's talk more, about the 50,000 gigatonnes of available carbon, that is left for all life on the planet!

First, how do scientist's come up with around 50,000 gigatonnes of available carbon left on the planet? Some of the amounts can be directly measured, how much there is in the atmosphere is one of the most researched numbers on the planet! That figure of 415 parts per million equals around 800 gigatonnes of carbon, in the form of carbon dioxide. 560 gigatonnes in plant and animal life are based on both satellite images for how much plant life is on the planet during the year and measurements that were taken by hundreds of people every year all around the planet. How much soil carbon, is taken by averaging soil carbon from all over the globe this amount is said to be 1,500 gigatonnes. The amount of "fossil Fuels" is the amount of "known" reserves found by mainly oil accompanying who has been looking as far and fast as they can, that amount is estimated at 4,000 gigatonnes (The carbon sequestrated in fossil fuels would only become available if mankind continues to ...
