Farting cows are responsible for a big part of global warming, too.

I think the biggest cause of Global Warming is a-hole like these and other scientists bloviating about their own guesses.

My guess is as good as theirs or better. We are in a warming cycle because of the sun and the usual cycles the earth goes through, and there isn’t a damned thing we can do about it. We are insignificant in the works of nature.

We have been through these cycles nefore and will go through themn again.

Oh Puuulleeeeaaseeee, at least publish these sorts of stories under “Publish Or Perish”. Global Warming stories should be on the back pages of whatever rag is still publishing those tales.

Good news. Now when I go catfishing I can tell my wife I’m just doing my part to combat global warming by lowering the worm population.

Fits right in with the program I just saw on the Science Channel where they claimed global warming causes volcanoes.

I guess you really can't fix stupid.

So what? They are SUPPOSED to do that. They are breaking down decaying plant matter to make nutrients for the next generation of plants.
CO2 is one of those nutrients, it just happens to be airborne.
If not earthworms, it's beetles and micro organisms doing the same thing.
It has to happen. Removing earth worms won't change that.

10 CO2 increases
20 Plant populations increase
30 Plants consume more CO2
40 CO2 decreases
50 Plant popuations decrease
60 Plants consume less CO2
70 GOTO 10

Turns our that God makes global warming, and cooling.

They have already legislated God away, but there’s still warming and cooling.

I think maybe God is an outlaw in the eyes of the liberal.

The quantity of lunacy regarding carbon dioxide just keeps growing.

There is a thing called “the carbon cycle.” All organisms emit CO2 as a function of their metabolic processes. Plants and other photosynthesizing organisms use that CO2 to make carbohydrates and other biological molecules. Other organisms eat the photosynthesizers, passing the carbon compounds up the food chain.

It’s a big, important cycle. Without it, life would not exist. Trying to remove all CO2 from the earth will have a major negative effect on life. The fact that people are hysterical enough about “global warming” that they are willing to try to remove CO2 without even stopping to consider that it’s a necessary component of life is mind-boggling.
