| 1410002 | 2015-10-18 04:59:00 | Volcanoes disgorge more CO2 than mankind and there is always at least one volcano blowing it's top somewhere all the time. Probably more than one Roscoe. ;) HERE (www.usgs.gov) How many active volcanoes are there on earth? "There are about 1500 potentially active volcanoes worldwide, aside from the continuous belt of volcanoes on the ocean floor. About 500 of these have erupted in historical time. Many of these are located along the Pacific Rim in what is known as the 'Ring of Fire.' In the U.S., volcanoes in the Cascade Range and Alaska (Aleutian volcanic chain) are part of the Ring, while Hawaiian volcanoes form over a 'hot spot' near the center of the Ring." And let us not forget the Bush Fires, controlled and otherwise. ;) |

| 1410005 | 2015-10-18 06:18:00 | Don't forget the rising sea levels in some locations. Only in some places? Hmmmmmmmmm. :D I wonder if it could be the coral based island sinking? :D Interesting article HERE (www.telegraph.co.uk) |

If you don't think you owe scientists and their theories anything think again. Not engaging in the climate change debate with you again though. Eventually I recognise a dead horse when I see it. |

| 1410009 | 2015-10-18 13:35:00 | 6778 The Bold Print giveth and the fine print taketh away. :D It just shows how dodgy this stuff is. Nothing dodgy about an organisation putting its docs into archives. You said you couldn't find evidence of where the carbon trading money is going so I provided one well-known example. The Christchurch City Council is real. British Gas is real. $3 million is real. Here is more: Dunedin City Council Forests yielded $6 million selling carbon credits in 2013. www.odt.co.nz |

| 1410010 | 2015-10-18 16:49:00 | Don't forget the rising sea levels in some locations. Which location and how much? And if I ever see that video of Kiribas island with a gale blowing over the beach I will throw something my tv. |

| 1410011 | 2015-10-18 18:24:00 | Personally I think all the problems we have are caused by population. As in too many of us. Pollution, extinction of other species, unemployment, the lot. Cut it by at least 9/10ths and it would all go away. |
