I didn't know we had mapped the entire ocean floor and were measuring the dissolved gasses from all the sub-surface volcanoes. Can you share how they relate or correlate to that of human based emissions?

I can't be sure why you are lying in the road struggling to breathe with multiple fractures. It could be that truck I heard go by that may have just hit you at 90 mph, i didn't see it so I can't be sure. Because I can't be absolutely sure why you are in the state you are in, best not to do anything.

"Warm seas around Australia's Great Barrier Reef have killed two-thirds of a 700-km (435 miles) stretch of coral in the past nine months, the worst die-off ever recorded on the World Heritage site, scientists who surveyed the reef said on Tuesday." ""The coral is essentially cooked," professor Andrew Baird, a researcher at James Cook University who was part of the reef surveys, told Reuters by telephone from Townsville in Australia's tropical north." "While bleaching occurs naturally, scientists are concerned that rising sea temperatures caused by global warming magnifies the damage, leaving sensitive underwater ecosystems unable to recover." http://www.reuters.com/article/us-australia-environment-idUSKBN13O059 http://www.reuters.com/article/us-australia-environment-idUS...

  "While bleaching occurs naturally, scientists are concerned that rising sea temperatures caused by global warming magnifies the damage, leaving sensitive underwater ecosystems unable to recover." This seems to indicate they're not sure how much impact global warming is having. Is it 10%? 90%? Would be good to know.

    Is it 10%? 90%? Would be good to know. It would be good to know, and it would be very good to know whilst the effect is still reversible. It would be a great shame to discover that our fears about man-made climate change were correct, but it's too late for any changes to have a meaningful effect.

This is an area of hundreds of square kilometers, if there was a volcano causing it we'd know. We also monitor the atmospheric gases and an event of this size would be easily detectable.
