Dinosaur Flatulence?

Political flatulence could increase global warming.Available here.

From Think Progress:
This week, Congress held its first hearing on the landmark IPCC report on climate change. That report concluded that global warming is “unequivocal” and human activity is the main driver, “very likely” causing most of the rise in temperatures since 1950.

During the hearing, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA) — one of the 87 percent of congressional Republicans who do not believe in man-made global warming — questioned the authors of the report about a period of dramatic climate change that occured 55 million years ago. “We don’t know what those other cycles were caused by in the past. Could be dinosaur flatulence, you know, or who knows?’

We still suffer from dinosaur flatulence whenever Rohrbacher, Duncan, Mitchell,Stevens, Gordon and any number of others take the podium!
