"basskisser" wrote in message om... I just LOVE it....I wonder what all of you righties, who, here in this very newsgroup, condemmed science, saying that global warming was made up by mad scientists. First, he said it was too soon to blame CO2 as a cause IF there was indeed global warming. IN MY OPINION, The output of the sun and it's cycles need to be looked at FIRST. Green house gases are created by (in order of the volume produced); Termites, Cows, powerplants, cars, bacteria, other animals including man. And reports to Congress need to be looked at with a scepticle eye depending on who wrote then and the political agenda behind the commission of the report. I personally wouldn't beleave ANY report generated during an election year! U.S. report on warming puts blame on humans White House shifts view on the causes of greenhouse gases Andrew C. Revkin, New York Times Thursday, August 26, 2004 ---------------------------------------------- A new report to Congress focuses on federal research indicating that emissions of carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases are the only likely explanation for global warming over the past three decades, a striking shift in the way the Bush administration has portrayed the science of climate change. In delivering the report to Congress on Wednesday, an administration official, James Mahoney, said it reflected "the best possible scientific information" on climate change. Previously, President Bush and other officials had stressed uncertainties in understanding the causes and consequences of warming as a reason for rejecting binding restrictions on heat-trapping gases. |

Green house gases are created by (in order of the volume produced); Termites, Cows, powerplants, cars, bacteria, other animals including man. It's not the amount of various greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, but the potential for heat trapping of each. Granted, there is a much greater concentration of CO2 and Methane, than CFC's, BUT, what little CFC concentrations are found have a far greater heat trapping potential. There are many of these gases that are found in small concentrations, but have a huge potential, such as low level ozone, Methyl Chloroform, N20, and on and on. And reports to Congress need to be looked at with a scepticle eye depending on who wrote then and the political agenda behind the commission of the report. I personally wouldn't beleave ANY report generated during an election year! Why is that? These findings have been around for years, it's just that the republicans choose to pull their collective blinders tight! |
