I read the article and found it very informative. The conclusion and following letters were very on the mark.

Where I stand at this point: There is still no accounting for the rise and fall of CO2 in past years where we have had ice ages and warm cycles. What produced the extra CO2 then and what made it vanish? It still seems that if the sun is more intense then the CO2 will hold more of that and that seems why we would be "warming" and not necessarily the fault of the gas itself. Again, the solution of higher taxes and less energy seem very self serving to the Political parties rather than solving the problem. Like tobacco, if it is so dangerous then just ban it rather than tax it. Stop all fossil fuel or anything else that produces CO2 (remove your cats as they produce CO2) and depend totally on wind and solar. Remember hydro is out because of the endangered fish etc. No clear answers out there but I still recall all the graphs and charts that proved we were going into and ice age back in the 60's. I stand somewhat more enlightened but not convinced, not by a long shot. Will keep an open mind however while I still wait for the proof positive the Man is causing the planet to warm.
