If we are to speak truly to our age, therefore, we can assume, not (1) the complete ignorance of Christian principles, such as existed in the
decaying civilization of early Greece and Rome; (2) the thoroughgoing knowledge and acceptance of Christian principles, such as existed in the
time of most of our grandparents; or (3) the vigorous antagonism to the gospel, such as now exists among those who accept either the Marxist or the Fascist interpretation of history; but (4) a vague and tenuous residuum of Christian piety, devoid of any intention of doing anything
about it.

What I think you mean is that if we get CO2 levels high enough to cause a serious problem, we can't just stop emitting and hope the concentration will drop in
time to make a difference, whereas with methane, it
decays fast enough that we need to worry more
about the
decay products than
about methane itself.
I'm quite aware of that, BobC — by
time of

neither do those uncertainties allow scientific closure — as long as models of the climate system's behavior
decay into chaos on shorter
time scales than human history, climate modeling will remain prey to misrepresentation by those well enough paid, or ideologically bloody minded enough to do so: the trouble with the climate wars is that neither political side, activist or obscurantist, really gives a damn
about the science, and those presuming to speak for it invite damnation by both.

C (or methane hydrates / clathrates, in case that isn't considered geologic)-RRB-, Halting all marine photosynthesis and letting respiration /
decay continue at the same rate (it would actually
decay over
time as less organic C would be available) would result in an O2 decrease at a rate of
about 0.011 % per year, but it could only fall at that rate for
about 3 weeks, with a total O2 decrease of
about 0.000675 % (relative to total O2, and not counting organic C burial, which wouldn't make a big difference); Halting all land photosynthesis and letting respirationd /
decay proceed at the same rate would cause O2 to fall
about 0.027 % per year for
about 19 years, with a total drop of
about 0.52 %.
