CH4 is something on the order of 20 times as potent as CO2 as a greenhouse gas. > > People talk about carbon sequestring (is that the right word/spelling?)

I don't know the percentage, but it is high. It would also be an excellent fuel source if I could figure out how to deal with the sulfur content. > > Has anyone figured out how to put out the mine fires that are currently > going on? Last I heard, there are a couple in the US that were expected to > burn for the next 50+ years ( this was about 5 yrs. ago). And before men were on the scene to notice, I assume there were Coal fires in exposed seams. I know there were forest fires and Peat fires going on. There are many Peat fires here and in Canada every fall in areas that aren't accessable to Fire Crews. They eventually burn themselves out of fuel in a few weeks, but it's someitmes difficult to breath outside for a few weeks, even if the fire is 150 miles away. We sure get some pretty sunsets, though. Imagine how many SUVs it would take to produce the amounts of CO2, CO and particulates that are released in one day of burning, when the smoke can be seen and smelled for several hundred miles. I may agree that we pollute more than is necessary, but overall we are a very small portion of the total. > > I will stop now, but, the questions I have asked here, are but the "tip of > the iceburg" (parden the pun). And from your statements, I assume you have been paying attention and thinking. In my experience, the people who don't have any questions, haven't been paying attention to the topic under discussion, or just blindly accepted whatever was said, because they weren't informed enough on the topic to have an opinion. Or they are apathetic. Nothing is that clear-cut, that all agree to everything. I don't watch much TV, or get my news from paper sources. They nearly always leave me with more questions than answers, and if I research to find the answers, I normally find the facts, as presented, were wrong. > Greg H.
