  Here lies my "problem"  I have this silly notion that the Earth is MUCH
more powerful and resilient than us humans.  Sure we can damage alter
or even greatly alter a local environment but to "destroy" one takes
something on the order of a nuclear blast.  It's still "local" not
global.
Volcanos have been belching poisonous gasses and "ozone destroying"
gasses in much huger ;-) quantities than we could dream of emitting, for
eons yet the Earth still exists and is able to sustain life.  The global
environment has always been in a constant state of change.  I find it a
little arrogant to think we are now the ones responsible for this.
Nothing
wrong with being good stewards but the Earth is capable of converting
awfully huge amounts of CO2, etc.  Put out more CO2 and more heat, and
you get more plant life to convert it back.  Equilibrium.

Loren,  well put!  now, if you could convince a news station to run that
story it would be great.
I have an unle who is a big wig at the Mississippi State Univ. in the
forestry Dept,   he always laughs when people bitch about the number of
trees that are 'killed' each ay or minute or whatever.  According to
math,  (you can't argue with math can you?) there are more trees now than
there were at the turn of the 1900 century.  If you think the
particulates are bad on a Internal combustion engine's exhaust, don't
huff them....
