Bryce, this is wrong on two grounds, maybe three. First, we do not know that any of the supposed warming is due to the CO2 increase, and I doubt it is. More to...

I disagree. Any CO2 added to the atmosphere absorbs some of the earth's IR radiation which heats the region of the absorbing molecule. However, there are...

The 1 deg centigrade increase in atmospheric temperature by doubling CO2 is disputed. It is disputed by me and many others who have calculated it correctly....
Bryce, sorry to misunderstand, but then you missed the point of the thread, which is whether or not human emissions are causing the CO2 increase. I read your...

How much of the zero point zero three percent that is CO2 is actually "emitted by human activities"? I don't think even the IPCC claims it is ALL...
The Bryce is Right! Go to http://calvin-m-wolff.com/CO2%20Limits.html for a list of effects on average global atmospheric temp as a function of CO2 alone and...
Don, natural emissions of CO2 are around 25 times human emissions, on the order of 200 billion tpy. About the same amount is also taken out of the atmosphere...

If they are "reassigned", perhaps they could at least do something _useful_ such as maintaining the roads, hospitals, schools etc. But my fear is they will...

CO2 doesn't disappear, and the 'average turnover' as you put it is a different concept referring to individual molecules rather than concentration. A long way...

Adrian,  CO2 is increasing because humans burn about 7 gigatons of fossil carbon per year. C + O2 = CO2.   Bob ... From: Adrian Godfrey <lists@...>...

Add up the numbers of carbon atoms and the number of oxygen atoms. They may be in different places but there are still the same number of them. Why is this so...
Bob, you are merely asserting the disputed position. Do you not understand this issue? No one is disputing that humans create this CO2. The issue is the...
 Adrian,  If we want to dig up all the fossil  carbon and burn it to make CO2, we can return to the 'dinosaur' ages where it was about 7 C. warmer and...
