How does temp rise cause CO2 to rise 800 years later????? That is pretty simple. Remember that he is talking about interglacials. As the snow and ice melts, organic material is exposed to the atmosphere and oxidizes. Tundra melts, giving off methane and more organics. The rise in temperatures make the oceans out-gas their CO2. Bogs dry up and make their carbon available. The result is a small change in climate gets amplified by the CO2 and methane that gets released. Or at least that is what happens when megatons of fossil carbon aren't being burned every year. Massive volcanoes belching CO2 have also been implicated in climate change, along with massive extinctions at least once. But Taro doesn't want to talk about that... Taro likes to pick and choose his reality.

yes, they are in synch. And yes, the data thus collected by scientists confirms a time lag of average 800 years with the CO2 peak tracking the temp peaks by that time - and not the other way around, please. These are facts and not something somebody 'believes' in. How do I explain that? Well, unlike you I don't try to pretend that I know better than those scientists, who have spent all their life, education and career on trying to understand and even possibly explaning such 'weird' data. The liberal's disease par excellence is and always has been to ignore and 'adjust' reality to fit their theories rather than observing real life and adjust their 'understanding' of their surroundings to fit reality. Nothing new here :) /Taro
