People who are certain that Man's production of CO2 is a significant cause of Global warming are advocates of conservation, and generally suggest that Republicans are doing a poor job of managing the environment, and that Democrats would do a better job.

The Antropogenic argument is to point to CO2 increases in the Ocean and the Air, over a couple hundered years, which corresponds with measurable Global Warming, and insist that man's CO2 emissions have caused the Global Warming.

But advocates of conservation of Carbon, have no definitive proof on the patterns of cooling from the Earth's core, from 8500 Degrees F.

Undersea geisers and sub-magma water flows are not well understood.

How much of the increase in CO2 is produced by under-sea events?

A few degrees difference in Sea Water temperature might have a large effect on the retention of Ice at the North Pole.
