>>The system also corrects problems like pollution as best it can. About 35% of atmosphereic pollution is removed each year by natural causes such as rain. If we reduce our pollution, things would return to "normal" in a few years. Some folks try to scare people into thinkng that air pollution is permanent and that what went up since the start of the Industrial Revolution is still there. Probably not much. <<

I like this closed loop mobius logic which simply which ignores the long term damage we are doing to the biosphere because it is technically not pollution. Rising CO2, temperature rise, deforestation, depleted ozone, melting ice pack and melting permafrost are not pollution but they make life on the planet more difficult.
