Looking for some help, Need info on percentage of human/manmade made CO2 compared to natural. I'm having trouble finding a static on the percentage of man made compared to natural.
Thanks for any help
I don’t remember where I read it but only about 3% is man made.
Man made CO2 is the only CO2 that will cause global warming and is 1 trillion times more dangerous than natural CO2.
In any case, the statistics on any of this stuff come from folks who cannot reproduce their original data. The science has been destroyed by “the dog ate the homework” excuse.
Thanks, But I am looking for it in print preferable a reliable resource for an article I am writing.
Thanks though.
Water Vapor Rules the Greenhouse System

A few excerpts:
Total combined anthropogenic greenhouse gases comprise (12,217 / 370,484) or 3.298% of all greenhouse gas concentrations, (ignoring water vapor).
Total atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) — both man-made and natural— is only about 3.62% of the overall greenhouse effect.
Anthropogenic (man-made) Contribution to the “Greenhouse
Effect,” expressed as % of Total (water vapor INCLUDED)”
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is 3.618% of “Greenhouse Effect” with 3.502% of that natural and 0.117% manmade.
Anthropogenic (man-made) CO2 contributions cause only about 0.117% of Earth’s greenhouse effect, (factoring in water vapor).
Adding up all anthropogenic greenhouse sources, the total human contribution to the greenhouse effect is around 0.28% (factoring in water vapor).
God made a perfect planet. The vegetation uses the carbon dioxide and gives us oxygen back. I’m old enough I learned that in school. Remember the 70s and probably before the environmental wackos didn’t want a tree anywhere cut down. As far as I am concerned cows farting are part of the necessary big picture.
Man has never “made” CO2... it has always been
Great info on the site. It confirmed some other data I had.
Thanks
