CO2 will never be the most important greenhouse gas (the main greenhouse gas on this planet is the sinister pollutant dihydrogen monoxide. DHMO, as it is commonly known, causes 95% of the greenhouse warming effect. Government water projects in the US have contributed to higher DHMO levels, and thus to Global Warming.)
Bill Walker talks chemistry for a while in this review of Michael Crichton's novel State of Fear and the current global climate trends. For those of you readers who know and love chemistry problems - chuckle when you think about how the people that will be bothered by the next fact. DHMO has been implicated in a huge number of deaths worldwide! But technically, drowning is not a chemical death, go figure. Death is not really the end; ashes to ashes, dust to dust...
