Wrong. Water vapor is the leading greenhouse gas. As for CO2, humans contribute a measly 4% to the global production compared to natural sources.



But anyway, I wonder if you believe so much in your new found religion do you practice what you preach? Do you drive a car? How is your computer powered? How is the food you eat produced? Or is your position that everyone else should make sacrifices for your beliefs?


I am no hippie. And I think we can't do anything about but that doesn't mean I am ok with people being ignorant.

It's when blood appears on Uranus that you should visit a doctor
Looks like Uranus has a big brown section in it's south pole. :awe:

Two pictures of the South Pole of Uranus. The picture on the left shows Uranus the way our eyes would see it. The picture on the right was taken with special filters.
It shows the "hood" of methane clouds over the pole. The South Pole is just below and to the left of the center of the planet in this picture. These pictures were taken
by Voyager 2 in 1986.

Have the inside track on what happened. The progressive people of Jupiter FINALLY kicked out the Jupiter tea party republicans, Jupiter progressives took control of government, enacted climate reforms, stopped Jupiter's fracking, forced their air polluting factories to install clean air controls, and the red cloud of death began to shrink away. And one day soon we too shall once again see the blue sky's of Jupiter, the green hills of Jupiter, and the shining deep blue oceans full of life, and most important all those massive storms disappear into fluffy white clouds.
Thank the God of the universe that the voting public of Jupiter finally wised up and voted in their own best interest.
Maybe that trend will spread to the other planets in our solar system.
Earth fir one.....
