No, it's all wrong - about the CO2 being absorbed from the atmosphere and the planet cooling. On the contrary, if we were all to drop dead tomorrow, global warming would continue for thousands of years, as I explain in the thread I started, about the GREAT LIE. There'd also be an immediate warming spurt, as the sulphur aerosol pollution (which has a cooling effect) would be quickly washed out of the atmosphere. And,within a few decades, on top of the CO2 warming would be the warming from methane as permafrost melted, and the sea level would rise 60-70 metres as Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets melted. Thus, if we disappear, or just carry on as we are for that matter, the Earth will continue tipping into a super-hot state, which probably won't be habitable for humans, even at the poles. However it is unlikely that the Earth will go the way of Venus, with the oceans boiling away, if that's any comfort. Cheers, John --- Alvia Gaskill wrote:
