Correct.

And, the only way to stop it, is to stop pulling carbon from the ground.
It doesn't help to slow down the process, or reduce greenhouse gas
emissions from cars.
Whoa there. That does not follow. If you slow down the process by reducing
emissions now, you buy time.

Another addendum. I wrote:
The only way to decrease atmospheric carbon by biological methods is to

That should be: land based biological methods. People have suggested
interesting methods of increasing biological activity in the ocean. This

A recent cover story in Scientific American presented a
very convincing case for human activity contributing to
global warming, and it has been going on for thousands
of years.
The case is based on evaluation of the contents of gas
bubbles trapped in ice cores
Michael Crichton makes an interesting analogy in his book on Global Warming:
Imagine the composition of the Earth's atmosphere as a football field. Most of
the atmosphere is nitrogen. So, starting from the goal line, nitrogen takes you
all the way to the 78 yard line. And most of what's left is
