There is enough proof that the additional CO2 caused massive greening of the Earth.

Can you explain what caused ice ages? 10K rises and falls in few years?
"_All_ the studies are measuring the same tendency : the temperature is rising"
There could be lots of reasons for that. Anyway, the temperatures were not always rising, clear temperatures rise was observed in 1930-40s and in 1980-90s. Cooling in 1960-1970s. And yes, prediction has to be precise. If a model predicts rise of 3K in 100years, and you measure 1.3K - your model is wrong. It's even more wrong if you don't take into account any of the natural cycles, even if prediction is accidentally correct.
Steady? We have seen 20-years rise after a colder period. Nothing out of order.
CO2 isn't pollution. CO2 is causing massive greening of the earth.
This also means that if you hire unqualified women only because they are women, then your AI will have bias against women.
Quite the opposite, actually. Governmental regulations kill innovations.
Nothing can stop the next climate catastrophe. Which is the next ice age by the way, and not some mythical global warming.
Bans like this are unlawful and should be countered by a revolution.
Just look how much gasoline and diesel was sold. Anything else will give you tremendously wrong result.
LOL, no. Denmark used 67.5TWh gasoline and diesel fuel last year, due to better efficiency of the electric drivetrain it's equivalent to roughly 20TWh of electricity. Denmark also used 46TWh electricity last year, so they would need to increase their production by 43.5%. It's quite high actually, for Germany the same figure is just 31% (190TWh and 610TWh). All data can be found here https://www.statbank.dk/ENE2HA.
Needed for what? Optimal range for plants growth is 1000-1500ppm.
Incredibly dumb move. CO2 is our friend, not an enemy.
End users very consistently hate breaking changes, regardless design or functional.
And we would need 730 of such factories to provide all of 73 million annually produced cars with a 200kWh battery.

My BMW ran for 107k miles, only repair until now - headlight lamps for $20, self-replaced. BMWs built after 2005 are extremely reliable.
Rather 5 times the normal solar panels.
Bonds can be sold, thus lowering their price and making it harder for Tesla to sell new bonds.
Your numbers are off. Tesla requires 9kg of lithium per 10kWh. If 85kWh model has in reality 95kWh, then you'd need 85kg lithium per car. World reserves of lithium are roughly 16 million tons, so, it would suffices for a bit under 200 million Teslas.
Lithium production was 43000 tons last year, which would produce 500.000 cars, even if we wouldn't need lithium for anything else.

The only reason to switch are moronic German politicians, who require fleet CO2 standard and want to ban ICEs completely.
It's not like he can decide that alone, he has ca. 20% of Tesla's shares.
It's also entirely possible that AfD wins 2021 election, kills all CO2 incentives, after which no new BMW EV model will be built, because they are not competitive on level playing ground.
Battery alone (for 500-miles range) will weight more than double of engine+transmission+gearbox+fuel of 2000-miles range ICE semi.
2200lb for gas, 3000lb for the engine, 700lb for the transmission. Say 7k lb total. Compare this now to the electric one. The battery alone would weight 33k pounds. Engine and transmission would add another 2k. 5 times more than ICE. The battery would also cost $200k.
Nobody would be in the market if not for moronic politicians pushing failed AGW theory...
It's about battery, not about electricity. You will need 20-40% of additional electricity production to convert all ICE cars to electric, it can be done today. But the battery can't compete with ICE on equal terms.
If they can sell them instantly, then why they have such a large inventory?
You don't need to. There is research that this type of targeting is absolutely ineffective.
LOL, we do know from Podesta emails, that Clinton campaign colluded with Google, Facebook, Twitter directly. Clinton got help from inside of these companies. Don't tell us your nonsense.
