And you suggest sending them back to the stone age and endless tribal warfare between rival warlords? Or permitting them to be subjugated by religious fanatics and brainwashed in their madrassas and Mosques to eventually martyr themselves in some suicide bombing against innocent people??
I am telling we are doing it to them now. We pounded them to the stone ages, we are giving the Talibans the fuel to execute their agenda.

It ain't the trees Sarman.. It's the phytoplankton. Oceanic phytoplankton provide well over 40% of the total global photosynthesis and at least 50% of the total O2 output.
mother nature works in a balance. We humans have a tendency to screw things up. It like erosion. Erosion is a natural process until humans decided to live on the shores then it becomes a problem. What I am saying is that we are and will be pumping these gases at a rate that mother nature can't process it quick enough and we are impeding the process, thus it becomes a problem.

But we've seen a 20-30% reduction in phytoplankton populations over the past 30 years, so it stands to reason that something else is preventing them from consuming that CO2 and proliferating, rather that decreasing.
Could it be a byproduct of human activities?

I suggest you research Iron Fertilization and Planktos. Both queries should give you plenty of reading material.
Thanks

Geezus WEEPS!! That accusation is getting kind of old, don't you think? Unless you're saying that all Muslims are willing to use violence against others to spread their religion.

Are you saying that all Muslims are militants?

No, I am repeating what you made clear.
