greenhouse gas graph

So glad that someone over at NOAA finally put all that scientific data I have been oogling for months, years, even, into a handy little chart!

ONe will note that the only thing on the decline are those nasty little CFC's, governed by the Montreal protocol as ozone depleting chemicals, and I have to say, they have not declined nearly enough...we are at 1988 levels still, but at least not increasing at the same rate as CO2 and NO.

Leaves one to wonder where those latter levels would be if we had joined Kyoto years ago. Thanks for nothing, George.
