Burning fuels, effects of CO2 on earth's atmosphere?

Question

Anyone know of good books/articles that describe the effects of fossil, bio fuel and resulting CO2 on the atmoshere? Trying to get to know the Bio fuel CO2 cycle, future outlook.

Answer 1

OK Just thinkof the earth and say since we have all these people more then ever before, we chop down all the forrst that prodce oxygen. Then we build factories and suberbs all over the place putting smog over the cities we build and stopall the other forrst growing. then becuse we can not live in the cities any more becuse they are to dirty and polluted. we build suberbs around each one destroying all the forrest left and the farm lands. Now the only farm land left is the deserty areas and the prearery/plains areas. Which not only coast more, they also can not handel the farming areas.

So now we all need a car for a basic life style becuse we are all live in the suberbs. We have more cars then ever before and that is not enough. We need even more and China wants another 10 million cars. So we are going to burn up even more fuel, and the earth can not break it down and clean it up any more becuse all the forrest are gone. It can not produce enough oxygen to sastain the level of activity to maintain the present enviorment and we keep adding more and making it worst.

All the forrest that where unimmaginaly huge, and endless of the northern hemisphere are gone and tiny little things in coparison, and the southern hemisphere, has gone the same way.  

Yes this obviously has an effect on the earths atmosphere. We where all prought up to say nature is there for us to use. If we burn it the smoke will go somewhere else. Now the smoke is not going somewhere else. Becuse there is nowhere else to go. When you look at the last 120 years and now you would barly belive the ammount of people, forrest and natural habittat destroyed. Also the shere size of theammount of landwe used for suberbs. All this used to break downour waists, and produce oxygen. Now it does not this is the reson why the CO2 levels are so high, becuse we produce more then ever before, but also destroyed the way the earth breaks it down and makes oxygen at the same time.

Answer 2

Personally, I don't think we're having ANY effect on the environment. Similar things happened in the past... I don't think ancient reptiles were worrying about fuel emissons when it happened to them, were they?

It's just a natural trend. Poles are always shifting, climates are always changing.

Answer 3

I think there is a little report called the IPCC.

cadetsky:

I like the reference to reptiles, of course during the time of these reptiles the average temp of the Earth was 10deg warmer, there was a much higher co2 level and no ice at the poles, the sea were 150 feet higher also.

The very fuel were are burning today is the plant life of that time, were are putting it back into the atmosphere.
