No worries, good luck with your hunt for the answer to your question, I figured I would try to help but obviously that link did not satisfy what you were looking for.

Yeah, I read and replied to the garbage you posted....It is flat out wrong and misleading....Man contributes 29 gigatons of CO2 per year not 7, and did you miss this?

Burning fossil fuels, in contrast,” writes MacKay, “creates a new flow of carbon that, though small, is not cancelled.
Quote:
Although our output of 29 gigatons of CO2 is tiny compared to the 750 gigatons moving through the carbon cycle each year, it adds up because the land and ocean cannot absorb all of the extra CO2. About 40% of this additional CO2 is absorbed. The rest remains in the atmosphere, and as a consequence, atmospheric CO2 is at its highest level in 15 to 20 million years (Tripati 2009). (A natural change of 100ppm normally takes 5,000 to 20,000 years. The recent increase of 100ppm has taken just 120 years).

I will keep burning that gasoline and diesel/bio-diesel; burning my trash; keep my wood fires. I need it warmer. Bloody cold this winter.

Sorry, my burn barrels downwind from house. Prevailing wind blows east so I am west of the barrels. Burning tires, I might just do that. Better than paying the land fill to take them..................

Perhaps you should read your own pathetic wikipukia link before you throw it out here screaming "friends" to big oil as your link said nothing about the evil big oil. LOL. Anytime you folks read something you don't like that is all you scream. It is hilarious.

I'll see your wikipukia link and rasie you one...........lol

"David John Cameron MacKay, FRS FInstP FICE, is the Regius Professor of Engineering in the Department of Engineering at the University of Cambridge and chief scientific adviser to the UK Department of Energy and Climate Change"

Doesn't exactly sound like a buddy to big oil to me. You just don't like his findings. Tough.

It appears I will need luck as global warmers have no answers to anything.

You can burn, recycle or ignore all my online garbage.

Like I ignore 95% of yours.
