Rep. Barton Argues CO2 shouldn’t be regulated because it isn't a pollutant

Rep. Barton Argues CO2 Shouldn’t be regulated because it isn't a pollutant.



From the video:
“I would also point out that CO2, carbon dioxide, is not a pollutant in any normal definition of the term. … I am creating it as I talk to you. It’s in your Coca-Cola, you’re Dr. Pepper, your Perrier water. It is necessary for human life. It is odorless, colorless, tasteless, does not cause cancer, does not cause asthma. There is nobody who has ever been admitted to the hospital for CO2 poisoning, so it is not a pollutant. “

Some liberals are ridiculing this video. The statistics on global warming no longer support their theory. All they have left is attacking their opponents with ridicule. They can't cite facts to support their argument.
