yup.


we burn fossile fuel - that produces CO2 and H2O the first is a highly efficient reflector of heat radiation - thus we contribute via the so called green -house effect to the warming of the globe.

This is known long time and not even discussed anymore.

The controverse is about the magnitude and significance of this contribution.

I know.. and it's even worse on Mars where the greenhouse gasses are doing some serious heating. Yes that must be the cause of the coincidental heating of Mars. What else could it be?

So, when we moved from a wood burning, horse and human powered world, to the one we are in now, were there any things the went away or were lessened? Do land use patterns play any role in either carbon fixing or the H20 cycle? Does the virtual explosion in technology and ubiquitousness of electrical and eletronic gear, and RF excitation of the atmosphere that has happened over the past 100 years need to be taken into account in any way? These are only a few of the questions that must be answered in order to resolve the impasse honestly.

I can't wait for your explanation about the glaciers as far south as Illinois managing to retreat completely over the past 10,000 years.

Global warming has been going on for centuries. Mankind's contribution is probably non-existent.
