A volcano emits more carcinogens in one eruption than if we burned every last drop of oil. If global warming is real, it's not because Billy Bob drives an SUV.
Number one, volcanoes have been active since the earth was created, so whatever gases they create have long ago been factored into the global equilibrium. The explosion of man-made gases has been piled on top of that in the last 200 years.

But more to the point, global warming is not caused by carcinogens, dottie, cancer is. But you knew that. Warming is caused by greenhouse gases, such as CO2, and man dumps about 150 times more CO2 into the atmosphere than the world's volcanoes. An incredibly disingenuous and deceitful post on your part, dottie. Shame on you.

This graph shows pretty clearly that the present is quite cool relative to the rest of the earth's history.
Got nowhere with the link -- "site not found" -- so I didn't see this graph. However, there's all kinds of graphs...

Here's global temperatures over the last 400,000 years...



Now, according to that chart, temperatures should be declining right now. But nooo, they're going up...



That's because CO2 levels are higher than they've been for 400,000 years...



After increasing dramatically over the past 200 years...

Here's wishing you guys long lives, so in the years to come you can wallow in the shame of not only being proven completely wrong, but 'danger to humanity' wrong.

I don't suffer from insanity... I thoroughly enjoy it
