TREES WORSE THAN CARS
Global warming has only been dead for a few days, and already people are missing it:
One way to bring warming back is via more Californian wildfires:
A study released March 12 of four large California wildfires shows they collectively will put an estimated 38 million tons of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere through fire and subsequent decay of dead trees ...
The estimated 38 million tons of greenhouse gases is the equivalent of emissions from seven million cars - for one year. Nearly 10 million tons of harmful greenhouse gases were emitted from the fires themselves, with an estimated 28 million additional tons of carbon dioxide emitted from decay, mostly in the next 50 years.
Yet warmthers are still obsessed with vehicle emissions.
