Carbon DioxCheryl Hogue has an article entitled, "CO2 Emissions", in the June 4 Issue of Chemical and Engineering News. In the article, she reviews a report by the International Energy Agency (IEA). The IEA report indicates that last year the carbon dioxide releases to the atmosphere increased 3.2% compared to the year before. It then goes on to say that China was a major contributor, while the United States actually decreased its carbon dioxide emissions. Since atmospheric carbon dioxide is not a significant contributor to global warming, there is no relevancy of this data to any discussion on global warming.ide in the Atmosphere
