Scumbria:

Focussing on CO2 in the greenhouse debate is about as useful as branding the internal combustion engine the greatest threat to humanity. (tm Gore- "Earth in the Balance")

Here is a less expensive way to reduce man made radiation forcing:

Personally I think many (but not all) greenhouse publicists are spewing hot air. :P I've yet to see a good sea level impact analysis (ie one that doesn't imply that floating ice is a concern. Also why should the coef of thermal expansion of sand/water mixtures be estimated as so much less than sea water?) The business about mosquito spread is especially lame. How much does it cost to develop a new pesticide anyway?

There is only one thing that scares me- possible instability in the deep sea methane hydrate ice deposits. Do you know anything about them?
