As for the carbon cycle - well, it's where most people seen to get a little lost. How many of you remember from basic physics/chemistry that matter can neither be created nor destroyed? The form simply changes. So carbon that was "fixed" from the atmosphere in the carboniferous period (where, incidentally, the %age CO2 was nearly 600 times what it is now, but temperatures were similar, according to the Vostok bores) is now being released to the atmosphere from the burning of fossil fuels. This CO2 will be re-fixed by trees on our landmasses and algae in the oceans, and will, in time, be reborn as, you guessed it, OIL. It is all part of Earth's natural cycle. My point here is that the Earth is naturally carbon neutral
Well said Rulz.Most politictions and greenies couldn't spell "physics" let alone understand anything about it
