You know Al, I'm tired of you always sitting on the fence with all of your posts. When are you going to form an opinion for a change?

I posted the goverment's own numbers and drew the inexorable conclusion from arithmetic. Would you think it a stronger argument if I added a year of wildfires in the American southwest (1000-5000 square miles burned is SOP), annual CO2 emissions from volcanoes of 6.5x10^13 grams/year, and the unfathomably huge quantity of CO2 rising up out of rotting Siberian and Canadian wet tundra? Australia has a fantastic annual wildfire season, as does Indonesia.

Mt. Etna all by itself outputs 13 million tonnes/year of CO2 for its main plume with a similar amount estimated from diffusive emissions. If you want to sequester CO2 emissions, start there. It's all in one place and all going into the atmosphere. Grab that and European Union fuel burning is hardly even decimal places.

If you use sheaves of differential equations rather than arithmetic, you can obtain any politically useful answer at will. The statistically rigorous demo of climate prediction on demand,
