Anything outside of a natural system is pollution. Too much water in a desert ecosystem would also be pollution. I assume you are aware that wearing a mask increases CO2 uptake by restricting emission, it then becomes a pollutant even though the body produced it

Are you trying to suggest that humans are not natural, that we are all supernatural beings?

No silly, but if you want to close the garage door and cook all day to prove that CO2 is not pollution and that your body can process the extra CO2 be my guest.

No, there obviously is no way to "block" an ocean current, and no one suggested that it did.
What is known to be happening is that the Gulf Stream is being sunken beneath the surface.
If the Gulf Stream is subducted deeper under other currents, like the Labrador Current, then Europe will not get any Gulf Stream warming effects any more.
The Gulf Stream will continue towards Europe, but be deep under water instead of on the surface.

How deep are we talking here, a meter or two? ... what force are your relying on to keep the less dense water below the more dense water? ... buoyancy forces dominate this system and fresh water will stay above the all salt water ... every drop of it in all the oceans ... it would take awhile, but that's the time factor in work performed ... that's a fundamental property of fluids in general ... it's geo-potential shell thingies ... gasoline and water is the perfect example, density differences, buoyancy forces, all exactly the same ...

Let's talk momentum ... the Gulf Stream is 100 miles wide, 1,000 miles long, 100 feet deep moving at 3 mph(?) ... and water is on the dense side ... to accelerate this downward, we must apply a force, and for this much mass, it needs to be a BIG force ... or sweep away the 10 miles by 100 miles 10 feet deep fresh water ...

What is known to be happening is that the Gulf Stream is being sunken beneath the surface.

Dude, salt and fresh water mix if not there would be no salt water as all evaporation condensed to rain is fresh. 119,000 cubic miles of water evaporate from land and ocean sources annually and the Amazon discharges a freshwater plume into the ocean that is 7,628,000 cubic feet per second and eventually it all mixes together, this is just logic

So with 321,003,271 cubic miles of water in the worlds oceans it takes just 2697.5 years for all the water in the oceans to pass thru the clouds and return to Earth even though deeper waters may never actually evaporate

Bullshit.

CO2 is exhaled by your body, too much in your system will kill you because it is pollution.

Well there were more rain forest sequestering CO2

The overwhelmingly vast majority of CO2 is hed in the oceans.

Much was also released by burning of forest and with that forest cleared the reuptake process there is eliminated

Rainforest is important for many many things. Globull warming ain't one of them.

Well they are a major source of Carbon lockup and Oxygen production, the more of both the better

Why are you so interested in keeping CO2 locked away? You don't like life?

The rainforest sequester large amounts of CO2 and in the process convert sunlight to sugar and Oxygen that enable the food chain and allow you to breath. You have an issue with that?

You never should have skipped the first grade, as you missed a lot

Actually it's pretty clear that you are an idiot. The rainforest creates comparatively low O2 compared to the algae in the oceans.

Once again you demonstrate an infantile understanding of the earth sciences. Tell you what, graduate from middle school, then get yourself a high school diploma then go to college, and when you actually know something feel free to post again.

So you are advocating for rainforest depletion? Because rainforest are bad places with mosquitoes and their place in the Carbon cycle is irrelevant

We can stop there

You loot a Walmart yet today champ

Actually he didn't advocate that. You took it there after his factual statement that the overwhelmingly vast majority of CO2 is held in the oceans which is true.

The oceans are also taking up more CO2 which means it is pollution

So at what point is CO2 not a pollutant?

Gas cloud kills Cameroon villagers

An eruption of lethal gas from Lake Nyos in Cameroon kills nearly 2,000 people and wipes out four villages on August 21, 1986. Carbon dioxide, though ubiquitous

www.history.com

An eruption of lethal gas from Lake Nyos in Cameroon kills nearly 2,000 people and wipes out four villages on August 21, 1986. Carbon dioxide, though ubiquitous in Earth’s atmosphere, can be deadly in large quantities, as was evident in this disaster.
Lake Nyos and Lake Monoun are both crater lakes about a mile square located in remote mountain areas of northwest Cameroon, dominated by rock cliffs and lush vegetation. In August 1984, 37 people near Lake Monoun died suddenly, but the incident was largely covered up by the government. Since there is no electricity or telephone service in the area, it was not difficult to keep the incident secret and the 5,000 people who lived in villages near Lake Nyos were unaware of the potential danger of their own lake. At about 9:30 p.m. on August 21, a rumbling noise emanated from the lake for 15 to 20 seconds, followed by a cloud of carbon-dioxide and a blast of smelly air. The cloud quickly moved north toward the village of Lower Nyos. Some people tried to run away from the cloud; they were later found dead on the paths leading away from town. A woman and child were the only two survivors of Lower Nyos.
The deadly cloud of gas then moved on to Cha Subum and Fang, where another 500 people lost their lives. The carbon dioxide killed every type of animal–including small insects–in its path, but left buildings and plants unaffected. Reportedly, even survivors experienced coughing fits and vomited blood.
Outsiders learned of the disaster when they approached the villages and found animal and human bodies on the ground. The best estimate is that 1,700 people and thousands of cattle died. A subsequent investigation of the lake showed the water level to be four feet lower than what it had previously been. Apparently, carbon dioxide had been accumulating from underground springs and was being held down by the water in the lake. When the billion cubic yards of gas finally burst out, it traveled low to the ground–it is heavier than air–until it dispersed. Lake Nyos must now be constantly monitored for carbon-dioxide accumulation.
