Rob 48 you need to read waynos's post that states atmospheric oxygen effects ocean systems just as I tried to tell you,dead zones can be an indication of lower oxygen in the atmosphere.

It seems I was mistaken on the statement I made that oxygen was at 30% in ww2 but My point that Oxygen is decreasing and we will suffocate if we do nothing, still stands.

Rob 48 you need to read waynos's post that states atmospheric oxygen effects ocean systems just as I tried to tell you,dead zones can be an indication of lower oxygen in the atmosphere. ALL systems of the earth are connected even if SCIENTIST have not found them.The systems of the earth are very fragile and balance is the key word and we should never say never when it comes to the life of the planet . SNIP..
AN OFT-HEARD WARNING with regard to our planet's future is that by cutting back tropical forests we put our supply of oxygen gas at risk. Many good reasons exist for placing deforestation near the top of our list of environmental sins, but fortunately the fate of the Earth's O2 supply does not hang in the balance.
Simply put, our atmosphere is endowed with such an enormous reserve of this gas that even if we were to burn all our fossil fuel reserves, all our trees, and all the organic matter stored in soils, we would use up only a few percent of the available O2.
No matter how foolishly we treat our environmental heritage, we simply don't have the capacity to put more than a small dent in our O2 supply. Furthermore, the Earth's forests do not play a dominant role in maintaining O2 reserves, because they consume just as much of this gas as they produce.
In the tropics, ants, termites, bacteria, and fungi eat nearly the entire photosynthetic O2 product. Only a tiny fraction of the organic matter they produce accumulates in swamps and soils or is carried down the rivers for burial on the sea floor.
While no danger exists that our O2 reserve will be depleted, nevertheless the O2 content of our atmosphere is slowly declining--so slowly that a sufficiently accurate technique to measure this change wasn't developed until the late 1980s.
Ralph Keeling, its developer, showed that between 1989 and 1994 the O2 content of the atmosphere decreased at an average annual rate of 2 parts per million. Considering that the atmosphere contains 210,000 parts per million, one can see why this measurement proved so difficult.
This drop was not unexpected, for the combustion of fossil fuels destroys O2. For each 100 atoms of fossil-fuel carbon burned, about 140 molecules of O2 are consumed.
The surprise came when Keeling's measurements showed that the rate of decline of O2 was only about two-thirds of that attributable to fossil-fuel combustion during this period. Only one explanation can be given for this observation: Losses of biomass through deforestation must have been outweighed by a fattening of biomass elsewhere, termed global "greening" by geochemists.
Although the details as to just how and where remain obscure, the buildup of extra CO2 in our atmosphere and of extra fixed nitrogen in our soils probably allows plants to grow a bit faster than before, leading to a greater storage of carbon in tree wood and soil humus. For each atom of extra carbon stored in this way, roughly one molecule of extra oxygen accumulates in the atmosphere.
Broecker has authored over 450 journal articles and 10 books. He is perhaps best known for his discovery of the role played by the ocean in triggering the abrupt climate changes which punctuated glacial time, in particular the development and popularization of the idea of a global "conveyor belt" linking the circulation of the global ocean.
However, his contributions stretch far beyond the "conveyor"; his work is the foundation of carbon cycle science, and his applications of radiocarbon to paleoceanography are landmarks in the field.
His work with chemical tracers in the ocean is integral to modern chemical oceanography; indeed, his textbook "Tracers in the Sea", authored with Tsung-Hung Peng, is still cited in the contemporary literature 25 years after its publication.

The intelligent curve has been found to circle around to stupid.
[I]mrthumpy[/I]What altitude where the planes flying at?
[I]network dude[/I]You're kidding right?
[I]mrthumpy[/I]With so many details in the story, knowing the approximate altitude should be easy. He knew they were lower than commercial planes and higher than crop dusters, so perhaps we can all learn about this special chemtrailing program going on only in southern Arizona. I have never seen anything like this in my lifetime, so I am intrigued.
[I]network dude[/I] well that went as well as could be expected. I'm left wondering what an indecent pattern would look like though...

Killing prairie grass we learned back in the thirties will kill the prairies and cause a new dust bowl. It took a decade of living in the dirt to repair the damage done the last time the grasses were killed off so we know they can't be doing that. If you really think that they are trying g to kill off the prairie grasses please explain why they would do that?. e reply to: vethumanbeing

Thanks for that info, so your saying it will take 20 minutes for the 777 to suck 2 million cubic ft of life giving air and spit out crap. Wow I feel a lot better.We can all sleep tonight.

You talk amongst yourselves without addressing me; an indecent pattern would be this back and forth conversation between you both without inclusion of my input.

Best calculation? 12,000 feet. I am nowhere near a major airport and watching a decent pattern by commercial airlines. These planes are smaller and very maneuverable (no noise).

[I]network dude[/I]So if someone asks me why I posted a question to you, I am not allowed to answer them unless I include you in the conversation that everyone with internet capabilities can read? I could see if we flaunted our U2U's outright, but nothing was said that you couldn't read. Again, if you feel like the T&C is being broken alert the staff, otherwise, quit whining.

Just so I can completely understand your claim, the 12,000 foot spray planes only come around twice a year, once in the spring, and once in the fall. They spray tic tac toe grids directly over you and you can taste the air and wipe off what they spray. And the planes are small fighter jets, like A-10's.
And with this anomaly going on, and all your neighbors talking about this, not one of them got any pictures or footage of this happening. In 2014 where every cell phone has those capabilities.
ETA: oh, and it made everyone of you sick.
Have I got any of that wrong?
