A couple of minutes Googling produced figures of 2%, 28% and 40% of the world's methane output attributable to termites.

Then I got bored (pun intended.)

And the carbon dioxide production of 6 billion people as opposed to 2 billion at the start of the last century... We breathe in oxygen, we breathe out carbon dioxide.

You can look for greenhouse gases all over the place, and you'll find that not a single source is monitored accurately anyway.

The extra carbon however comes from fossil fuels. Cows don't eat coal, termites don't run on oil. All that carbon was in the atmosphere at one time, now we're putting it back. The earth survived then, it'll survive now.

But of course, the carbon isn't the issue. The issue is a computer model.

So to solve Climate Change we need to bring in a law banning all consumption of beans, beer & curries.

apparently camel farts are very high in CO2.

God knows who stands behind a camel for months measuring this stuff.

now THEY deserve the Nobel Prize (and clean clothes)

Stop telling me things I already know as if you are revealing something new. It's getting very boring.

But when we establish that CO2 isn't the problem then any discussion of CO2 is pointless.

I thought the farts were rich in methane. Make sure you don't smoke when taking measurements!
