World is at its hottest since prehistory, say scientists

[Sava]

I don't care about Global Warming anymore.

It's happening so slowly that it's not going to be a danger to me.

And if humanity is too stupid to ignore it before it's too late to do anything about it, then we deserve the bad things that are going to happen to us. I only hope that the damage is bad enough to cause our extinction. Because if humanity is too ignorant to stop the causes, we deserve to die.

And seriously. You have to be a complete MORON to not believe that there is a direct connection between human generated CO2 emissions and the subsequent average rise in global temperatures during the same time period.

I just think we need to plant a few more trees and give those that we have a few more hugs and everything will be okay.

R = I/(I + O + B)

I = 0.04 +/- 0.008
O = 0.5 +/- 0.025
B = 0.46 +/- 0.1

Very good! You've shown that .04/1 = .04

You're an idiot. I wrote that down to show my steps in applying error propagation analysis.

My main point was in response to techumseh that our small contribution (he said 1%) to the production was the source of the 25% increase in atm content. Even at 4% it does not follow.

Yes, it does.

Because at 4% of total production we increase the atmosphere's reservoir of CO2 by ~0.8% per annum.
