Lets take carbon - the demon of the envioronmentalists, carbon is a natural element, all living things are made of it, the level of carbon in the atmosphere is produced from various sources :
1% - human polution
2% - volcanic activity
4% - rottiing vegetation. algae
93% - emitted from the oceans
Studies show that as ocean temp rises so does carbon emmision, but ocean temp rises far slower than the atmosphere, ie it takes the ocean at least 400-500 years to catch up with atmosphere.
The obsession with carbon is the problem, there is absolutely no sceintific proof that carbon causes the temprature to rise, in fact its the opposite, increasing temp results in carbon increases.
Imagine your car breaks down on the highway, do you spend the night inspecting the washer on the windscreen wiper?
Therefore to understand why our carbon levels are increasing now we have to look at what the atmosphere was doing 400 years ago, before industrialisation.
I dont deny that the climate is changing, but then it has always changed, the current frenzy is similar to the millenium bug, world disaster was prophesised but didnt happen.
The Earths atmosphere should better be called a tiny bubble in the suns atmosphere.
I did a dispassionate study of this post, and found that it contained:
6% - arbitrary numbers plucked out of graeme89's arse
15% - half-remembered stuff read in the Daily Mail
24.76% - reiteration of the nonsense that weird boring bloke down the pub spouts on a Tuesday night
11100.00% - hot air, which, funnily enough, is contributing to 50% of the global warming being caused by humans
