Rising temperatures corelate much more...Good point. Rising temperatures corelate much more closely to solar activity than to CO2 concentrations. And besides, there are many indications that some of the most prosperous times on Earth were during time of high temperature and high CO2. If man is such a contributor to CO2, then there should have been a tremendous spike world-wide in the late 1940's when we were involved in that little thing called WWII. Man burned more fossil fuels during that period than any other, but yet the CO2 levels trended normally. Anthropogenic sources are also negligible compared to natural sources. If you removed man all together the greenhouse gases would remain about the same. So, let's go ahead and destroy the world economy trying to stop something that we have no chance of affecting.Lucid Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01269816707805590821noreply@blogger.com
