Isotopic analysis of the CO2 released by the burning of fossil fuels has
proven without any doubt that the excess CO2 in the atmosphere is a result
of recent combustion and not from any other source.
Further, volcanic outgassing only contributes 2% to the yearly emissions of
Co2 and has not increased over the last 100 years. Also ocean outgassing can
not be responsible since the Oceans Co2 levels are not in equilibrium with
the atmosphere, and are still absorbing CO2. In fact Ocean Co2 levels and
hence Ocean acidity are both increasing posing a threat to ocean life.
Now unless the Martians who live in the hollow core of the earth are
secretly importing and depositing CO2 into the Earth's atmosphere, from the
planet Venus, the only remaining source of OLD CO2 is the cumbustion of
Carbon based fuels.
In addition the increase in atmospheric CO2 concentration matches very
presicely what is predicted from the accurately known accounting of the
comnbustion of carbon based fuels.
There can simply be no rational debate on the matter. The observed increase
in CO2 in the atmosphere is a direct result of the burning of Carbon based
fuels. No other sources of carbon can explain the observtions.
Anyone who claims otherwise is either an ignorant fool, or a liar.
