Humans can only claim responsibility, if that's the word, for abut 3.4% of carbon dioxide emitted to the atmosphere annually, the rest of it is all natural.

And human production of CO2 isn't natural?
This just brings up a point made elsewhere, sparked by PJ O'Rourke's latest column where he refers to people as a nuisance to the liberal mind, that the fundamental issue underlying all of the GW debate, and the extreme fringes of the eco movement, is that man is inherently the problem, with everything. Too many of us living to well and too long. This started out as your basic America is bad emotion and has slowly branched out to include all of human kind other than berry pickers living in a sustainable berry patch.
