For those that will deny the issues of carbon emissions
Lets talk about serious issues with carbon emissions. I know there are some users who still wont accept these issues but this is also informative to those that do.
The ocean water we all know and love is special to us. For instance, we have a MUCH lower carbon content in our atmosphere than our closest neighbors (mars and venus). This is due in part by our ocean's ability to absorb carbon dioxide fron the atmosphere and change it to carbonic acid... which in turn gives us carbonates and bicarbonates.. Which is used to protect our sea water's pH. The Ocean, in result, changes in pH and calcium carbonates (you know like chalk). For more information go online and type in pH regulation of seawater (i dont want to look shady and post a pdf file myself or anything)
So what? The pH changes a little with the carbonic acid but the Ca ions are there to fix this! Now lets say we increase that carbon supply. Lets dump more carbon for our oceans to process. Lets drop that pH alot more. This is called [b][u]OCEAN ACIDIFICATION[/u][/b]. Acid.. sounds bad? Well it is. If our blood gets too alkaline or acidic, it can be deadly. That logic can and will apply to the fish too.
I will leave a link below to the damage it can cause within the shelled, skeletoned, and coral communities. This by extension affects the oceanic food chain and ours as well. It will also show the history and future of increased ocean acidification. I will also link a john hopkins study on the increase of plankton in reflection of the increased carbon. I can link how the coral reef is dying but im sure you all know about it already. No it is not dead yet that memoir was early but it is dying (if you know what i am talking about). Final link will show just some data and research from MIT. Dont forget there are plenty if online pdf sources and other places.
Any questions? Feel free to use this to spread the word and argue the problems as well as the proof of increased carbon emissions.

We are the vermin that will kill our host eventually. But hey, might aswell enjoy it while it lasts right? I mean sure we could try to save our planet. But She doesnt need saving. She'll survive. And in the end She will thrive. I mean hell. She survived a meteor. A -blam!-ing meteor! Sure it killed like almost everything on the planet. But it made way for mammals and birds. Like I said, She will survive and She will thrive. Another Ice age is gonna hit us in a few hundred or thousand years. We'll have to stop it, endure it, or just leave. We'll probably just stay here and face alot of wars, crises, and just alot of other unpleasant things which will cripple our civilisation.
