Here, in your own words: If emissions of CO2 stopped today, you would find a rapid drop in CO2 levels because as happens when spring comes in the northern hemisphere, plants start sucking CO2 in bulk. You just failed to mention that in the winter they happen to return 100% of that to the atmosphere and at roughly the same rate. Have you ever heard of balance in the carbon cycle? That means that as much is released as absorbed each year (on average). So I repeat, there is absolutely zero link between the rates seen in the annual carbon cycle, and the rise or decay of the long term mean caused by AGW. And sorry, but you did imply that there was a link as the above (and many other statements in your misguided posts) show.
