Thought this info would be useful to add to our quiver of questions for the AGW believers.

One of the items "they" weren't counting in their models is the amount of CO2 collected by Antarctic sea and glacial ice just recently exposed to the air.

That CO2 gets absorbed into the facia of the raw ice, then plunged into the ocean as the burg melts and twists and turns. The plankton pick up the CO2 dissolved in the water.

All very complex but just discovered!

Thanks Ernest!

Thanks for the post. I once tried to napkin calc. this for one of the "believers". They glazed over and my hand got cramped.

For the majority of believers it is impossible to explain this very obvious relationship without educating them from the bottom up. Units of measure, energy, basic math and constants are generally beyond some of the "believers" grasps. What to do?

I have found a simpler method that gets the point across. I take two beers. One of the beers is near frozen and the other is warm. I shake them up and demand they play "beer hunter" with me. I take the cold beer and hand them the warm one. I think you get the picture. This is my method for explaining how CO2 is a lagging indicator and not the cause.

This is a keeper. Thanks again for the post.
