So the US absorbs all the 5.3 billion plus 2.8 billion tons of the rest of the world.
We are doing our share.
But the point though of the thread was global warming is a hoax.
You tell me you can see this thermometer discretely enough to tell 1 degree difference between 76 and 77 degrees?

With 12.5% of the land mass missing in temperature readings for the last 70 years don't you think that biases the temperature readings?
Finally here is a number for:
Earth's trees number 'three trillion'
Earth's trees number 'three trillion' - BBC News
So average tree absorbs 48 lbs of carbon per year... or 72 billion tons absorbed by trees alone..
Carbon emissions reach 40 billion ton high: World faces 'dangerous climate change' - and China, the US and India are the worst offenders
China, US, India push world carbon emissions up
So let's see... Trees alone 3 trillion absorb 48 lbs or 72 billion tons. hmmmm did I answer your query something you could have done!
Total sequester by trees: 72 billion tons
total carbons emitted: 40 billion tons
Have an excess of 32 billion!
PLUS grasslands/pastures total acres in the world: 8,501,932,660 at .46 tons per acre sequester equals 3.91 billion tons.
Hmmm...
So that means there is nearly 36 billion tons of EXTRA carbon that can be sequestered!
What the hell is this concern???
That is amusing. Damn the way you figure it atmospheric CO2 % must be decreasing.......except it's not.
Next quackpot theory.
You provided NOTHING to substantiate your crackpot statement!
Prove to me with research that CO2% is InCREASING because all I'm showing are the facts that:
1) 3 trillion trees absorb 72 billion tons of carbon.
2) Total carbons emitted 40 billion a year.
3) DUH... that leaves 32 billion that can be absorbed!
Prove otherwise...
Trees are a part of the natural carbon cycle, unless the wood is sequestered all the CO2 they absorb during their lifetime will be released back into the air.
Look up carbon cycle.
WOW... that is your proof? You are f...king dumb!
Trees USE CO2 to create what ?? Oxygen!
How hard is it to use the Internet to get the facts you idiot?
"A single mature tree can absorb carbon dioxide at a rate of 48 lbs./year and release enough oxygen back into the atmosphere to support 2 human beings."

"One acre of trees annually consumes the amount of carbon dioxide equivalent to that produced by driving an average car for 26,000 miles. That same acre of trees also produces enough oxygen for 18 people to breathe for a year."

How Much Oxygen Does One Tree Produce?
Oxygen was created inside a star, it is not created inside a tree. What do trees emit when there is no sunlight?
MY goodness are you STUPID!
