    "One simple fact is man produces only about 5% of the CO2 in the atmosphere"

    The simple truth that interests me is that 25% of CO2 in the atmosphere is from fossil fuels. But maybe you have something, starbust. In fact, as you are so sure of yourself, you should take on the scientists in the peer reviewed journals: In that arena your ideas will be judged solely on merit. In the meantime, you might test your ideas on this New Scientist site:

    "Climate change: A guide for the perplexed"

    "Our planet's climate is anything but simple. All kinds of factors influence it, from massive events on the Sun to the growth of microscopic creatures in the oceans, and there are subtle interactions between many of these factors.

    Yet despite all the complexities, a firm and ever-growing body of evidence points to a clear picture: the world is warming, this warming is due to human activity increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, and if emissions continue unabated the warming will too, with increasingly serious consequences.

    Yes, there are still big uncertainties in some predictions, but these swing both ways. For example, the response of clouds could slow the warming or speed it up.

    With so much at stake, it is right that climate science is subjected to the most intense scrutiny. What does not help is for the real issues to be muddied by discredited arguments or wild theories.

    So for those who are not sure what to believe, here is our round-up of the 26 most common climate myths and misconceptions.

    There is also a guide to assessing the evidence. In the articles we've included lots of links to primary research and major reports for those who want to follow through to the original sources."
