Well thank you designbot but in terms of what you said above -
Basic science can easily show why you are wrong. That 97% of carbon "pollution" that is naturally produced by plants and animals is reabsorbed from the atmosphere by photosynthesis. It's part of the natural carbon cycle of the Earth. The 3-5% produced by humans is NOT reabsorbed. And we are actively destroying huge tracts of land such as the Amazon rainforest that play an important role in keeping the balance.
To make a real world analogy, suppose I dump 100 tons of garbage into my front yard every week. 97 tons are taken away by the garbage man. Now according to what you are saying, I don't have a problem under that scenario.
BTW, this is what I mean when I say the industry groups are out there spreading BS arguments which people then repeat. It's the same thing that tobacco companies did back in the 70s and 80s.
