Ish, Plants are a sink of CO2, not a source. The nonsense right-wing claims of organic and volcanic sources of CO2 are utter crapola. meto.umd.edu "Present-day carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from subaerial and submarine volcanoes are uncertain at the present time. Gerlach (1991) estimated a total global release of 3-4 x 10E12 mol/yr from volcanoes. This is a conservative estimate. Man-made (anthropogenic) CO2 emissions overwhelm this estimate by at least 150 times. " volcano.und.nodak.edu Scumbria
