I agree that we should reduce pollution.

But why do you think we can STOP GW by those efforts??? IMO we are wasting the time that we should be using to ADJUST TO GW, since it will occur regardless of what man does- the MOST we can do is speed it up a little ( at higher levels of CO2 than we are presently at- compare yearly CO2 to a single volcanic eruption).


"If you look at the temperatures of Venus, Jupiter and Mars, they are all higher than can be accounted for by direct solar radiation,"

Melting Martian icecaps, and major climactic change to Jupiter-

And how much CO2 have we put into the atmosphere of Mars or Jupiter? The sun is known ( except to Al Gore) as a variable star- NO ARGUEMENT ALLOWED! So how will reducing the CO2 help, when the increased solar flux alone will increase the water vapor ( a more effective greenjouse gas than CO2) by a greater amount than the CO2 in the atmosphere???
