I was sent this and would appreciate your opinions"Some say he is a "nut" but may be it is the "kings New Clothes Syndrome" he could have some thing I have heard a lot of it before and you only get money from big business and government if you are doing research into PROVING that global warming exists not the opposite.

Where Does the Carbon Dioxide Really Come From?
Professor Ian Plimer could not have said it better!
If you've read his book you will agree, this is a good summary.
PLIMER: "Okay, here's the bombshell. The volcanic eruption in
Iceland . Since its first spewing of volcanic ash has, in just FOUR DAYS,
NEGATED EVERY SINGLE EFFORT you have made in the past five years to
control CO2 emissions on our planet - all of you.
Of course, you know about this evil ca rbon dioxide that we are
trying to suppress - it's that vital chemical compound that every plant
requires to live and grow and to synthesize into oxygen for us humans and
all animal life.
I know....it's very disheartening to realize that all of the
carbon emission savings you have accomplished while suffering the
inconvenience and expense of driving Prius hybrids, buying fabric grocery
bags, sitting up till midnight to finish your kids "The Green Revolution"
science project, throwing out all of your non-green cleaning supplies, using only two squares of
toilet paper, putting a brick in your toilet tank reservoir, selling your
SUV and speedboat, vacationing at home instead of abroad, nearly getting hit every day on your bicycle, replacing all of
your 50 cent light bulbs with $10.00 light bulbs.....well, all of those
things you have done have all gone down the tubes in just four days.
The volcanic ash emitted into the Earth's atmosphere in just four
days - yes, FOUR DAYS - by that volcano in Iceland has totally erased
every single effort you have made to reduce the evil beast, carbon. And
there are around 200 active volcanoes on the planet spewing out this crud
at any one time - EVERY DAY.
I don't really want to rain on your parade too much, but I should
mention that when the volcano Mt Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in
1991, it spewed out more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than the
entire human race had emitted in all its years on earth.
Yes, folks, Mt Pinatubo was active for over
One year - think about it.
&nb sp; Of course, I shouldn't spoil this 'touchy-feely tree-hugging'
moment and mention the effect of solar and cosmic activity and the
well-recognized 800-year global heating and cooling cycle, which keeps happening despite our completely insignificant efforts to
affect climate change.
And I do wish I had a silver lining to this volcanic ash cloud,
but the fact of the matter is that the bush fire season across the western
USA and Australia this year alone will negate your efforts to reduce
carbon in our world for the next two to three years. And it happens every
year.
Just remember that your government just tried to impose a
whopping carbon tax on you, on the basis of the bogus 'human-caused'
climate-change scenario.
Hey, isn't it interesting how they don' t mention 'Global Warming'
Anymore, but just 'Climate Change' - you know why?
It's because the planet has COOLED by 0.7 degrees in the past
century and these global warming bull artists got caught with their pants
down.
And, just keep in mind that you might yet have an Emissions
Trading Scheme - that whopping new tax - imposed on you that will achieve
absolutely nothing except make you poorer.
It won't stop any volcanoes from erupting, that's for sure."
