Everybody knows that the rise in global temperature happens several hundred years BEFORE the rise in CO2. Therefore it's only logical to ask: "Why do we blame CO2 for global warming?" Well thanks to a helpful comment from a Greenpeace blog-master, I recently learned the answer... CO2 doesn't actually cause global warming; it only AMPLIFIES it after warming is already well under way. And another good fact is that anthropogenic CO2 (humanity-caused CO2) is only a part of the total CO2 emission. All the other bad CO2 comes from natural sources which are then spurred to generate more and more CO2 because of the raising temperature! You can read the scientific explaination here: http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2004/12/co2-in-ice-cores/ ----- ----- This is great news! It's not all our fault! Not only that, there are many other contributors to global warming like the sun, variations in earth's tilt, natural emissions, and et cetera. So I'm thinking that this should relieve our guilt, and allow us to turn our attention to a more solvable problem, namely ADAPTATION TO THE PENDING CHANGES that will be resulting from the climate crisis. ----- ----- If we are really serious about the this crisis we'd GET READY for the new environment wouldn't we? We sure can't stop the other CO2 emissions or change the angle of earth's axis... ----- ----- What are some of your thoughts concerning the best way to prepare?
