I knew that Volcaino sh*t was bunk, thanks for finding the evidence.

After some research it turns out you're terribly incorrect. Volcanoes spew out more *pollutants* such as SO2 than humans, but volcanoes do ***NOT*** create any where near as much CO2 as humans. In 2003 humans created ~140 times more CO2 than all the volcanoes on the entire planet combined, including all the volcanoes under water, and it's probably higher in 2007.. http://volcanoes.usgs.gov/Hazards/What/VolGas/volgas.html Scroll down to "Comparison of CO2 emissions from volcanoes vs. human activities" http://hvo.wr.usgs.gov/volcanowatch/2007/07_02_15.html Here's Al Gores Global Warming speech: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2565436963450479963&q=%22An+Inconvenient+Truth%22+al+gore+duration%3Along&hl=en Scroll to 27:12 minutes to see the CO2 & temperature chart spanning the past 400,000 years that includes present humanity. See all of the ice age cycles, but when it hits modern time the CO2 spikes to ~5 times the maximum of any ice age!!! Here's an image of the chart --> http://www.indorphyn.com/images/al_gore-co2-temp-slide.jpg Notice how CO2, yellow line at the right, suddenly increases by ~5 times the max of any ice age when modern humanity arrives. That is Global Warming!!! It is *NOT* caused by volcanoes. Regards, Paul Lowrance
