[asa] Global Warming on Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Pluto, Venus, ...?

David Campbell Wrote:

Even if global warming on Earth were primarily caused by solar factors, it
would still be stupid to ignore the potential aggravating effects of
human-caused change such as increasing greenhouse gases. In fact, it would
tend to suggest that we need to be even more agressive in controlling
greenhouse gas because the sun is working against us.

The other articles imply that we really have no choice but to control
greenhouse gas.

It appears that every living thing emits gases that contribute to the
problem - so there is no Kyoto sink. We need to find a sink or else.

Trees produce methane and as they rot, they release the carbon dioxide that
they stored.

Can we produce a means of removing greenhouse gases without creating more
than we take out in the process? Or is this a perpetual machine problem?

On the Christian note: if we continue to use more than our share of
resource, without finding a solution to the problem, and we in the US
continue to provide military might so that nobody can do a thing about it -
what kind of witness is that?

I think high gas prices are a necessity.
