Global carbon emissions up 29% since 2000 and still rising


Yesterday, the Nature Geoscience Journal released a report saying that
global carbon emission levels are still rising �ソス 29% since 2000 �ソス and
they continue to rise 2-3% each year.

These findings that come from the researchers at the Global Carbon
Project who report that the cause of the steadily rising carbon levels
is due to the lack of absorption by the Earth�ソスs natural carbon sinks.

They believe there is a decrease in the efficiency of the natural land
and sea carbon sinks.

Science Daily reports that, despite the economic hard times, global
CO2 emissions are still on the rise.

�ソスThe use of coal as a fuel has now surpassed oil and developing
countries now emit more greenhouse gases than developed countries �ソス
with a quarter of their growth in emissions accounted for by increased
trade with the West.�ソス

Lead author Prof Corinne Le Qu�ソスr�ソス of the University of East Anglia
(UEA) and the British Antarctic Survey said:

�ソスThe only way to control climate change is through a drastic reduction
in global CO2 emissions. The Earth�ソスs carbon sinks are complex and
there are some gaps in our understanding, particularly in our ability
to link human-induced CO2 emissions to atmospheric CO2 concentrations
on a year-to-year basis. But, if we can reduce the uncertainty about
the carbon sinks, our data could be used to verify the effectiveness
of climate mitigations policies.�ソス

And yet the temps have been flat since 1998. Odd.

Choosing the historic EL Nino year as your baseline as usual.

There's a false premise if there ever was one. The earth's climate
has been "changing" since the plant had an atmosphere. Now the AGW
crowd thinks humans can "control" it. What a load of nonsense.

Why don't you fill in those "gaps" and get back to us before
requesting a multi-trillion dollar reworking of the world's energy
infrastructure?

We can control our role in it.

Why don't you fill in all the gaps in quantum theory before using a
computer, which depends on it?

If we are going to spend several trillion dollars on the computer,
that would be a good idea. Of course with a computer, you can build a
working prototype so regardless of gaps in quantum theory , you know
what you will be getting for the money. I don't think we can be
similarly sure of what we are going to get if we cut carbon emissions
so gaps in knowledge are a tad more relevant.

That's self evident.

Pure uter bullshit .
The fucking dumbasses like you spue out pure shit as facts then ignore
the facts.
the sky is 5.7 trillion tons and has 2 trillion trees in it.
Mans 30 billion ton DONT raise the skys co2 because the trees set the
sky at 003% and its not going up.

IF a dumbass like Hope added 2 % to the c02 evry year it would be 006 %
.
Morons like Hope cant measure the C02.
