I hope our respected mod is kidding...

Tongue in cheek at the same time I think we should be doing more research into the causes and effects.

As for Carbon Sinks:

I am referring to a few studies that show that trees will only absorb their standard load of carbon. Increased carbon in the atmosphere will not lead to individual trees absorbing more carbon. So forests will not automatically suck up the extra carbon. More vegetation is required... or microbes.
