Doesn't bacteria contribute a load of CO2 into the atmosphere? or am I just pulling that out of my ass?

I believe your thinking of (or at least i hope you are) of the algae covering the ocean surface. This accounts for a massive percentage of the worlds C02.
Humans account for something like 5% cant be bothered hunting for the source.

However im not saying we arent having an impact 5% is enough to shift balance just ask the pilot of a particular close pvp fight if his 5% damage bonus helped. I dont at present however buy into this whole doom and gloom were all gonna die thread thats been dominating the news the past few years.

The world does go through cycles. Do you think cavemen caused an iceage by wearing lioncloths

The above is the global tempeture variations for the 425,000 years. Taken from Ice Cores. Perhaps one of you alarmists can explain the variations here. Wooley Mammoths drove too many Escalades maybe?

That stupid movie some of you keep yakking about is retarded. He fails to mention that the Antartic ice shelf is increasing in size. But my favorite was the "OMFGZ LOOK! The lake is totally dry!" With a little boat in there for effect. What a crock of ****. The afformentioned lake was fed by rivers which were diverted by the Soviet Union. Of course it dried up, it had no fracken water source. If Al Gore knew that and put it in his movie anyway then he's a liar, if he didn't know it then he's an idiot. Take your Pick.

All this BS is going to do is impose restrictions on 3rd world nations that haven't gone through an industrial revolution yet. Effectivly secureing the ruling elite at the top. And in devoloped nations it'll force people out of thier cars, and onto public trans.

What are you tree huggers going to do when a Volcano Erupts? Just one eruption can produce more CO2 than humans have in thier entire history. Gonna put a Filter on that?

There is no thermostat for Earth. Get used to it. Species die, get used to that also. Infact, something like 90% of everthing that ever lived on earth is extinct. Once this cycle starts changing again and begins to cool off, people are going to do the same thing, only now they'll blame man for lowering CO2 emmissions, and as a result, everyone will freeze to death.

EDIT: And by the way. The information on that graph is posted on several websites. But the origin of the information (or "patient zero" for you aspiring doctors) is non other than the NOAA. Otherwise known as the National Oceanic and Atmoshperic Administration. Just wanted to get that out, lest I be branded a photoshop heretic.

I was wondering what log cabin in the wilderness you where writing from :) I am really amazed at what some of you Americans believe. I mean really It's a big world out there, and not 1/2 as scary as you think
