Co2 is it all just b*ll*cks ?
I'm reading an article on C02
"Of the 186 billion tonnes of C02 that enter the Earths atmosphere each year from all sources, only 6 billoion tonnes are from human activity. Approximately 90 billion tonnes comes from biological activity and another 90 billion tonnes from sources such as volcanoes and decaying plants.
We all being stitched up?

Oh, you've only got part of the story again. You forgot the bit about biological activity/natural processes taking 180 billion tonnes of CO2 out of the atmosphere annually.

r32,
Have you read this? You might find it interesting. If you are a scientific bent, you might like to link to his detailed explanation.

Most of the so called reports on Global warming rely on bad science, or in some cases they just make the data up.

A good book on this subject is The Skeptical Environmentalist by Bjorn Lomborg. He outlines how the statistics used aren't checked, but still quoted as if they are facts. You end up with stats that are warped and essentially meaningless. It's a big book, dry in places, but worth a read.

Whether it's true or not the whole issue is being exploited by Government as a huge tax raising regime under the guise of 'saving the planet'.
