Well... whether the Earth is cooling or getting warmer I doubt its because of air pollution. Man-made CO2 if only about 1/10 of that the earth produces from volcanoes and other sources.

1. An impact by a 17 mile asteroid 65 million years (threw up more debris and climate changing compounds than we could in 100,000 years in one day) Killed 75% of all species Cloud covered earth and lasted from 6 months to a year.
2. Explosion of Krakatoa, Expelled more climate changing compounds than we expelled in 100 years.
3. Every month on average a volcano will expell a decade worth of these compounds
The fact is how can we compete with these natural factors?
The fact is all the radical envioromentalists want is not a clean earth but an earth with a big socialist government that tells you what to do when it comes to everything
ROTFL.
With asteroid impact greenhouse gasses are smallest of your worries. Ejecta falling back to earth literally heats atmosphere so hot that heat radiation of it burns everything compustible which isn't underground or underwater... and deeper than few meters, heat would vaporize surface layer of all oceans.
And how that gives human right to play god? (with earth)

And mankinds emissions totally dwarf volcanic CO2 emissions... or do you think there's once in a week eruption equal to 1991 eruption of Pinatubo?
Which actually would cause volcanic winter quite fast because effect of aerosols from eruption is even bigger than one caused by greenhouse gases released by it.


While your apparent holy cow is greed of corporationism. (who tell you to consume and shed money to them more and more)
Unregulated capitalism is pure anarchy, exactly same like if you would be allowed to kill people who doesn't agree with you just because you can do it. (and if it benefits you)

"Understanding is a three-edged sword."





Thinking that this skyrocketing CO2 amount doesn't affect to climate isn't anymore burying head under sand, it's burying it under bedrock.


Carbon Dioxide

Present-day carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from subaerial and submarine volcanoes are uncertain at the present time. Gerlach (1991) estimated a total global release of 3-4 x 10E12 mol/yr from volcanoes. This is a conservative estimate. Man-made (anthropogenic) CO2 emissions overwhelm this estimate by at least 150 times.

Sulfur Emissions

Andres and Kasgnoc (1997) estimated the time-averaged inventory of subaerial volcanic sulfur emissions. There inventory was based upon the 25 year history of making sulfur measurements, primarily sulfur dioxide (SO2), at volcanoes. Actual measurements of subaerial volcanic sulfur dioxide emissions indicate a time-averaged flux of 13 Tg/yr sulfur dioxide from early 1970 to 1997. [Note: a Tg is equal to 10E12 grams]. About 4 Tg come from explosive eruptions and 9 Tg is released by passivedegassing, in an average year. When considering the other sulfur species also present in volcanic emissions, a time-averaged inventory of subaerial volcanic sulfur emissions is 10.4 Tg/yr sulfur.

Volcanoes and other natural processes release approximately 24 Tg of sulfur to the atmosphere each year. Thus, volcanoes are responsible for 43% of the total natural S flux each year. Man's activities add about 79 Tg sulfur to the atmosphere each year. In an average year, volcanoes release only 13% of the sulfur added to the atmosphere compared to anthropogenic sources.
