A single volcanic eruption can lower average global temps by .2 to .4
degrees within a year or less. We could probably find a way to have a
significant cooling impact on the planet if we wanted. Because of that I'm
not too concerned about warming.

And besides, if you look at the predictions, most global warming is going
on in the areas where it's too fricken cold anyway (1deg change at the
north pole but only .2 deg change at the equator) so it may end up being a
good thing.

I am concerned about bulldozing and concreting the planet and killing too
much of it's oxygen production capabilities.
