Not even close to 21% - the atmosphere is composed as follows:

PERMANENT gases in the atmosphere by percent are:

Nitrogen 78.1%
Oxygen 20.9%

(Note that these two permanent gases together comprise 99% of the atmosphere)

Other permanent gases:

Argon 0.9%
Neon 0.002%
Helium 0.0005%
Krypton 0.0001%
Hydrogen 0.00005%

VARIABLE gases in the atmosphere and typical percentage values are:

Carbon Dioxide 0.035%
Methane 0.0002%
Ozone 0.000004%
Water Vapor varies

Many places in Florida arer only feed above sea level, If anything had changed you'd see it there!

[djf]

OOps! Knew I was off by at least one decimal point!

[Iris7]

You are thinking of oxygen, 21%.

[DelaWhere]

LOL Don't feel bad - I've done the same kind of thing many times...

As I sit here looking at a thermometer reading -7.4 degrees Farenheit at 2130, I say lets have some climatic warming in upper NY state.

Naturally, the weather varies it always has and it will continue to do so.

Hey, I can keep my 2 SUV's !!!

Interesting information you have on the Chinese and Centralia coal fires and their relative contributions to atmospheric CO2.

And I don't give a darn how much your 2 SUV's CO2 emissions contribute to "global warming".

What I DO object to is the fact then when my poor little Lincoln Town Car gets parked between two of your tank-like monstrosities, there's no way under heaven that I can back out of a parking place and see oncoming traffic without just backing out and endangering my life.

Or even see a red light over your turrets.

In conclusion, I plain old don't like SUV's.

[DelaWhere]

Hehehe - but when you block in my Jeep, I can climb over your Town Car and be on my way.....
Just Kidding...

But- I get better gas mileage than your Lincoln...

It.s 4.6 degrees here in CT.and reached a whopping 15 degrees today, please send some of this warming my way.

In conclusion, I plain old don't like SUV's.

From one Old Okie to another, get out of that old Town Car and into a Navigator, you will never go back, believe me. I couldn't afford a Navigator so I went with the Expedition, less bells and whistles.

The Europeans chose the rules, numbers, and baseline year
to help them and their friends, with the intention of
appearing to be fair, at the same time as causing
massive problems for the US.
Ex1. Baseline year 1990 was chosen by the EUians so that
, with the inclusion of East-Europe in the EU, the
baseline of old-Soviet-style industry, that later went
out of business, would be included in their quota baseline.
Ex2. EUians helped Australia with a rule 3.7 that allows
Australia to include the co2 from burning-down-forests
in their baseline.
Ex3. Why does New Zealand get a number of 100, why does Australia
get a number of l08,when Australia has the highest per-capita co2 emmisions in the world, when the US gets a number of 93.
Because of these rules, the Aus will not need to do anything to be under quota,
the EU is almost under quota by doing nothing,
but there would be massive problems in the US if Kyoto was adopted.

"You are thinking of oxygen, 21%."

Whoops! I stand greatly corrected.

Good post. I'm not familiar with Melanie Phillips, but I've made some of these same points myself.

Thanks

I'm pickin' and grinnin'

One of my daughters had a Ford Explorer. She decided that she needed four-wheel drive to handle the Oklahoma snow, so she acquired a Suburban. Now she can really block my vision.

Fortunately I moved to Jawjuh. While a flake of snow panics the local populace (all the bread and milk disappears from the grocery stores), it doesn't require four-wheel drive to handle.

I LIKE my Town Car. Smooooooth. But I still can't back out of a parking space when surrounded by tank-like monstrosities without risking life and limb.

That was the Independent, a thoroughly socialist rag (Fisk works for them).

[redhead]

"Dear God, Please send some global warming up here to Minnesota. Thanks!"

That's the same prayer we pray here (montgomery mn) every year. Bumping...

Global warming is another big money grab based on unethiccal junk science, like the CFC scam.

Both are intended to make billions for their sponsors, which, in the CFC scam, has already been done.
