But the science is much more advanced than you give it credit for. The greenhouse effect is understood. A quick googling turns up this: http://irina.eas.gatech.edu/ATOC5560_2002/Lec26.pdf You may wish to work through it, and play with the parameters to see if you can get it to saturate. As for basing your entire conclusion about the future governance of the planet's atmopsphere on a crude hand-drawn non-reviewed graph of paleotemperature on the 500 Ma time scale, all the while ignoring IPCC, perhaps it might be worth reconsidering what you take seriously and what you dismiss. mt --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Global Change ("globalchange") newsgroup.
