Still the same. Most of the increase in CO2 is human. (There is a lot of CH4 from beavers however.)

The real problem is that the politicians are neither trying to understand nor to solve the problem. Mostly the politicians see GW as a useful issue. Koyoto did nothing except impose a tax on the US without lowering global production of CO2.

More efficient economies will help though. Unfortunately the Political GW Proponents are against these efficiencies too.

In that case I have a huge disagreement with your assessment. Please see the site:

Here is one of many examples of their argument against human-induced global warming:


Moving 11-year average of terrestrial Northern Hemisphere peratures as deviations in ºC from the 1951-1970 mean left axis and darker line (References:Jones, P. D. et. al. (1986) J. Clim. Appl. Meterol. 25, 161-179 and Grovesman, B. S. and Landsberg, H. E. (1979) Geophys. Res. Let. 6, 767-769). Solar magnetic cycle lengths right axis and lighter line (Reference:Baliunas, S. and Soon, W. (1995) Astrophysical Journal 450, 896-901; Christensen, E. and Lassen, K. (1991) Science 254, 698-700). The shorter the magnetic cycle length, the more active, and hence brighter, the sun.

I thought it came from their guts?

Oh, you meant the animals. Never mind....
