There was some comedy movie years ago, in which it appeared that Leslie Nielsen was looking up a woman’s dress and said it was a nice beaver. But the woman was pulling a stuffed beaver from a high shelf or attic space. Was supposed to be double entendre I’m sure.

In the long run, nothing makes any difference to the carbon cycle. That's why they call it a 'cycle'. ;-} Yep.
Beavers build dam; carbon is sequestered.
Beavers abandon dam; carbon is released.
Net change = 0
It doesn't take a rocket surgeon.

Since beaver dams hold water at a higher altitude that it would be normally they increase the earth's moment of inertia and therefore decrease the earth's rotational speed. Thus beavers make the night last longer.

Beavers make men buy fast cars.
Sadly, you have mixed up your beavers.

Sadly, you have mixed up your beavers. I'd argue that it's still arguably in context. The headline says "beavers play a role in climate change", and the whole "climate change" debate was invented by the global-warming p*****s.
