Another point I like to bring out in these CO2 discussions is that fossil fuels are only going to last another 40 - 100 years. That's not enough time/volume to do any real damage, anyways.
This little fact I love.......we've raised CO2 levels by about 100 ppm since the beginning of the industrial revolution. In doing so we've gone through a considerable amount of fossil fuels (some say half the world's supplies, but it's tough to say).
So we've raised CO2 from approximately 280 to 380 ppm, going through possibly half the world's supplies. hmmmmm
Can anybody explain where we're going to get the fossil fuels nessecary to reach that 2xCO2 target that all the GCMs are using as the future scenario? We've gone through half our supplies raising it by 100 ppm, how are we going to raise it by 380 ppm on the remaining half?
Welcome to SAGG docT. Get prepared to be attacked though. Such is the way around here it seems.
Maybe you'll even be accused of being me!
