<< The reason C02 is used to carbonate water is that it dissolves well into water in quanitities orders of magnitude greater than nitrogen. Now 75% of the earth is covered with water with wave and we have rain the washes thru the atmosphere and guess what. The proportion of CO2 that dissolves into water is a function of the pressure of CO2. Del you are technically illiterate and don't read scientific studies because you cannot understand them. >> How can you possibly know how technically literate I am from a couple of posts? In fact I spend several hours a day reading and comprehending the various sciences. BTW, the increase in CO2 levels has not noticeably increased the pressure of the atmosphere. The increase in the amount of CO2 dissolved in the water system is a function of it's increased proportion of the atmosphere. Still the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere has increased by 30% in a century, even with the additional amount taken out by the seas. So, what's your point? << Do you understand the the output of the sun has varied over geologic time order of magnitude more than the change is the adsorbion of the atmosphere due to the parts per million changes is CO2. Why is CO2 used to make soda pop when nitrogen is order of magnitude more abundant. >> I believe that the word that you are trying to use is adsorption, but you would be using it incorrectly in the scientific sense. Adsorption is the collection of molecules on a surface, such as when condensation forms on a cold surface. Where is the surface of the atmosphere? Absorption is when molecules are taken into a substance, as water into a sponge or carbon into iron to make steel. How does the output of the sun make CO2 levels suddenly irrelevant? I see no reports of the recent temperature rises being due to solar output. I hate nitrogen soda pop, and don't see what it has to do with anything. Read your sentence structure above and see if you can improve your grammar. Del
