"Well I just tried it and I guess that it is better than google (which I never use) but it still promotes the same narrative!

I don't know why we even call these 'programs' AI .... yes they are artificial but they have no actual intelligence!

My conversation (it follows a thread of questions as you ask follow up's) went like this (paraphrased):

Me: What is the current level of co2 in the atmosphere?

Pai: 412 ppm which is 0.04% which is more than should be naturally and that is the fault of humans.

me: Of the 0.04% how much is human made?

pai: Of the 0.04% a significant percent is human made and humans have increased the co2 by 50% in less than 200 years.

me: But what is the human made % of the 0.04%?

pai: A significant part which is the reason for climate change extremes.

me: What % of the 0.04% is man made?

pai: Human activities have contributed about one third since 1850 and that has caused the climate to change.

me: The human made co2 is 3% of the 0.04%.

pai: Apologies for the oversight. Yes it is 3% of the 0.04% since 1850, so a relatively small percent but it has a significant impact on global climate change and environmental conditions.

me: How can 3% of 0.04% since 1850 indicate a significant impact?

pai: Because co2 is a heat-trapping gas and human activities play a key role in global environmental changes.

me: From the current 412 ppm what should co2 be lowered to?

pai: It should be reduced significantly. The specific target depends on factors and goals related to climate change mitigation.

me:What happens to life on Earth if co2 drops below 200ppm?

pai: It would have an impact. Plant life would die. Animals would die. There may be another ice age but some microbes may survive. So that highlights the critical role of co2 in maintaining the planet's climate and supporting life as we know it.

me: What was the ppm of co2 1000 years ago?

pai: It was significantly higher. It ranged from 3000 to 9000 ppm so this shows a substantial decrease over time showing the importance of understanding and monitoring co2 for the planet's health and sustainability.

me: So 1000 ppm would not destroy life on Earth but a reduction below 200 ppm would?

pai: 1000 ppm would be fine but 200 ppm would have significant consequences and may place Earth in a permanent ice age.

me: Should we increase co2 levels then to protect life on Earth?

pai: No! Although co2 is essential for plant growth and life, increased co2 may lead to respiratory issues in school children when they are indoors. So a balance should be found which meets the need of defined goals.

me: What should that balance be?

pai: Levels of co2 should be reduced .... blah, blah, blah .... because #humans #bad ok?? "

#Germany: Study Shows Chemical Banned in 2013 Increasingly Found in Children

"[B]etween 2017 and 2021, the proportion of samples [from kindergarten children] contaminated with MnHeP increased from 26% to 61%."

These #government people do nothing but talk about #global-warming.
They don’t talk about the #poisonous #chemicals in the #environment, which are entering the bodies of all #humans.

Gript:

Germany’s Federal Environment Agency (UBA) is sounding the alarm after finding high levels in humans of a #banned #plasticiser—a chemical added to a material to make it more flexible and less brittle. The presence of the harmful substance, linked to male #infertility and higher risks of #diabetes and #obesity, was discovered as part of the ongoing 6th German environmental study on health.

UBA toxicologist Marika Kolossa said to Die Welt that the metabolite MnHexP had been found in 28 percent of urine samples so far.

A breakdown product of the plasticizer di-n-hexyl phthalate (DnHexP), MnHexP, has been strictly regulated since 2013 and is largely #prohibited in the #EuropeanUnion. It was first discovered in humans in 2023... continue
