Looks like nothing has changed with Co2, it is following the same exact trend line. Methane for some reason had flat lined 2000-2006, is back up too; mostly likely its due to increased livestock farming serving increased population. Learned a new term. global albedo.. which means an earth that is getting darker and absorbing more light.

At least the Methane curve isn't accelerating? I think? Guess we need a derivative graph to really tell.

Praying the Clathrate gun hypothesis isn't applicable.

Thanks for this. I'd never heard of Michael Dowd, but I've landed on a secular version of this. It's nice to know there are others who share this view.

As far as I can tell he was fairly ecumenical being UU - his spirituality is probably close-ish to Alan Watts or Joanna Macy.
