Reduced air pollution and increased water evaporation appear to be adding to man-made global warming.

Frankly I'm beginning to wonder if anyone knows anything...let alone everything. |
Without trying to appear smug, but that's been my argument all along, when I had these debates with Graham. My argument is that global warming is like a gun. We have enough intelligence to invent guns, but not use them responsibly. Likewise, we have enough intelligence to monitor and react to nature, but not enough to understand it.
I like this graph a lot. What on earth were our ancestors upto causing that level of CO2 I don't know. Some might see a pattern in that graph. There are lots of contradictory graphs and such.
This issue isn't new though. I was actually going to bring this up. I have just finished Crichton's "State Of Fear" book, and this issue was mentioned in there, and I was getting around to righting a good review in that "What are you reading thread".
