As to your percentage question, it is moot and the link showing the 800k year history of carbon tells the whole story. Science is not on your side. Z's photos tell you about the clean coal burning power generation in China and India........Texas and Iowa are generating 20% of their energy with wind.....and we need to immediately reward clean energy and make dirty energy pay a tax.........You are right about one thing.....with India and China it may be too late for man.......we must take the lead. I used to laugh at global warming as a geology minor in college. I no longer laugh. The science is here. The deforestation is the critical tipping point in my opinion.
For your convenience...now try again. Come on, no guts no glory! You should have the answers for these along with links to reliable sources right off the top of your head.
2seaoat, PLEASE share with us all how much the PERCENTAGE of CO2 has increased in our atmosphere in say the past 150 years. That should be simple for you.
While you're demonstrating your superior knowledge, please share with us what every green plant on earth emits AT NIGHT.
Was it all the coal power plants and SUV's during the Middle Ages which caused Global Warming? You know when the Vikings established colonies in Greenland where they planted crops and raised herds of animals. That allowed the Viking ships to provision their ships on their way to North America.
Now take us one step further. What makes you Global Warming disciples so incredibly arrogant that you believe man, man alone, can change the Earths climate? Aside from a nuclear holocaust, I can't see that happening. That is tantamount to a single ant, on a giant tree floating down the Mississippi River changing the direction the tree is drifting.
Share with us what sense it makes that we "capture" the CO2 from a power plant, then somehow bury it...while everything green on earth is producing CO2? Should we cut down millions of trees then pave the area so more grass and trees don't grow back?
How much has it the Earth warmed in the past 15 years?
