Great example of my view of the issue

Another view might be - lets assume that humans have devastated the environment, and greenhouse worst case scenarios are going to happen sooner than later... How is making the few people in the US and UK pay Carbon Taxes going to fix it ?
Where does that $$ go ? How will it change the impact that China, India and other developing countries are having ?

Re: 'If you don't believe in climate change you must be sick

Another thing I would like to point out. All of the carbon emissions from human beings since the beginning of the industrial revolution, even if not gradually removed by natural processes would STILL not move the percentage by a noticeable amount. The total mass of the atmosphere is over 5 quadrillion metric tons (that's 5,000,000,000,000,000 TONS!) .038 % of that number is 1,900,000,000,000 TONS (1.9 trillion tons). As you can see, human emissions are barely noticeable when talking about percentage.
interesting quote if true
