A proposal to stop labelling carbon dioxide as a pollutant and instead celebrate it as a "foundational nutrient for all life on Earth” will be up for debate at the United Conservative Party’s annual general meeting in November.

There’s already been a vetting process to weed out some resolutions, but this one made it through, which suggests “someone in the party thinks that this is worth debating,” Young said.

“I think this reminds us that the base of the UCP is host to a pretty substantial group of people who do not believe that climate change is real, or they don’t believe that it is driven by human activity, and they think that any actions taken to transition away from fossil fuels are unnecessary.”

    This is a confession that you are not well enough to participate in online discussions. Show this to someone you trust.

        So it’s not just poor grammar you can’t tolerate, but also criticism. And yet you are so free with it.

          Wait, making fun of you is being unable to handle criticism but you responding to it is you tolerating criticism?

          I’m now a little curious what your rules are.
