The point was to call CO2  pollution is absurd.

Why is it absurd, because it’s also plant food?  Can you explain your rational?

Manure is plant food too, but too much of it is a pain in the …  never mind.      That’s rightfully considered pollution, isn’t it?

CO2 is adversely effecting our atmospheric insulation layer, and as such possess a long term existential risk to life as we know it here on Earth.  Not to mention how it’s radically altering our oceans pH balance.  Very bad news, though it’ll be a little while before those consequences are driven home to a society doing its best not to notice.

That’s because this biosphere that supplies all we need, evolved within this overall climate regime, even with its fluctuations.  But what’s happening now is way the hell out of the ball park and definitely qualifies CO2 (especially Anthropogenically produced CO2) for the term “pollution”.

Here’s a fascinating learned article about pollution, problem is way more than you’d ever want to know.  I’m just hoping you look at it and recognize that it’s a bit more complex than glib dismissals can do justice to.
