In 1804 the population of the earth was 1 billion people.� It took 123 years to add another billion, then 33 years, then 14, then 12 to get the population up to 6 billion by 1999 (source https://www.learner.org/courses/envsci/unit/text.php?unit=5&secNum=4).� Now the human population is roughty 10.8 billion people (source http://populationpyramid.net/world/2015/)! I don't suppose all those people blowing CO2 into the atmosphere has anything to do with this? You suppose correctly: The added CO2 clearly comes from fossil fuel sources, as determined by isotopic analysis of the CO2 in the atmosphere. There is no controversy about where the increased CO2 is coming from: http://www.skepticalscience.com/its-...termediate.htm There is another way to know this: all the carbon in our bodies comes from plants; when we exhale, we are simply returning CO2 to the atmosphere, where the plants we ate (or the animals we ate) got it in the first place. This article speaks directly to that point: http://www.skepticalscience.com/brea...on-dioxide.htm Climate is a fascinating subject, in good part because a lot of it is non-intuitive until you study it for a while. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA (change ".netto" to ".us" to email me) - "A Guide to Self-Launching Sailplane Operation" https://sites.google.com/site/motorg...ad-the-guide-1 - "Transponders in Sailplanes - Dec 2014a" also ADS-B, PCAS, Flarm http://soaringsafety.org/prevention/...anes-2014A.pdf |
