Hi Marsha, My apologies. In demanding proof of my statement you appeared to cast doubt on it. Am I to assume that you are neutral on the question of human-caused global warming? Another "red-herring" that may be contributing to global warming is mine fires in China and India, reported in Parade magazine. "In china alone, upt to 200 million tons of coal go up in flames each year -- which may be the equivalent to America's total carbon-dioxide emissions from gasoline," the article states. Anyway, a couple of more names of experts: Robert Giegengack and Dennis T. Avery.
