want more laws, regulations, and fines based on a false narrative that completely changes community infrastructures from self-reliant to "sustainable" living, with "stakeholders" carrying the purse strings and the power. That is NOT Pono! Gregg Braden is a geologist, five -time New York Times best-selling author, scientist, international educator, and renowned as a pioneer in the emerging paradigm based in science, social policy, and human potential, had this to say about the dangers of carbon on the planet: "The idea that carbon dioxide is a poison is a false narrative to begin with. We are carbon -based beings. By demonizing carbon dioxide and carbon life, we're actually demonizing ourselves'." Science 101 shows us that plants take in carbon dioxide and give off oxygen. If plants die due to lack of carbon dioxide, so do humans for lack of oxygen. During the Cretaceous Period, which began 145 million years ago and ended 66 million years ago, we had a lot more carbon than we do today - tons more! This was the time of the dinosaurs, and everything was huge! Plants were much larger than they are now. The sea levels were also a lot higher during the Cretaceous Period. Was that due to more carbon dioxide? Not according to an article at Britannica.com written by Thor Arthur Hansen, Professor of Invertebrate Paleontology, Paleoecology, and Evolution at Western Washington University, U.S., and Carl Fred Koch, Professor of Geological Sciences at Old Dominion University, Norfolk, Virginia. It was fact -checked by The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica and last updated on Feb 7, 2024. The article said that sea level was higher primarily because the water in the ocean basins was displaced by the enlargement of mid -oceanic ridges8. It was not due to carbon! It was due to the Earth's mantle. On January 11, 2023, in an episode titled "Why "THE POWERS THAT BE" are So Desperate to Reduce Carbon Dioxide on OUR Planet?" posted on geologist and scientist Gregg Braden's YouTube channel, John L. Petersen of the Arlington Institute stated: "If you could look at the ice cores in Antarctica and Greenland, you would see that the temperature of the Earth increases or decreases around 800 years before the change in carbon dioxide. That means carbon dioxide does not drive the change; it is the response to the temperature changes."
