@sharkblubber And when they decay, bacteria will also release more CO2.

The rate of temperature rise is not unusual at all.Proxy records and the ice core data show that there has been much faster rises in the past.The rate of temperature rise in the 20s and 30s was the same as 1975-1998,and the ecosystem survived that one OK.

IS HE CALLING HIM JIM

BTW, in the past, CO2 had little to do as a driver of climate. The increase of these gasses and of global temperatures in such a short period of time is directly linked to our activities. In other words, CO2 has never driven climate, untill now where its increase is FAR faster than any natural system would allow.

youre looking for one piece, you'll never find it. there is, however, a massive body of evidence to support man made climate change. greenman3610 has some excellent videos on the subject and I'm sure he can direct you to the library of information that will answer your questions.

Give me some that it's not.

The Biosphere also alters the geological/geographical make up of the planet as well.

From the very birth of the sun to now, the star has increased energy output by 25%. The time where Earth was at the right temperature for life was 1 to 2 billion years ago however the Biosphere alters the chemistry, climate, and biological make up of the planet. In biology it is "like begets like, life begets life." Life will always adapt to its conditions however in the process of doing so it alters its environment. The result is selfreinforcing feedback cycle which form homeostasis
I'm sure when James LoveLock discovered that CFC's were depleting the Ozone Layer, people like you made the same claim. If it weren't for LoveLock, humanity would have a huge problem. No the greatest Environmentalist of our times is trying to give us a warning again... He was right the last time...

You have a misconception about climate change. NASA/NOAA and every single nat. scientific academy on the planet agree that humans are the most likely primary cause of the recent rapid rate of warming observed around the world.Its not the temp that scientists are worried about as it has been hot before, its the "rate" of warming that causes problems. Rapid changes are hard to adapt to. Plants don't breathe CO2, they photosynthesise it and they also release CO2 during the night when they respire.
