NATURALLY OCCURRING METHANE CAPTURE — Methane emissions may occur from land areas where coal or other high concentrations of un-extracted fossil fuels are present underground, resulting in a naturally occurring source of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions.

He shows, how the emission originates over a wide range of altitudes with a significant contribution from altitudes 8 - 15 km, where the amount of water is small and CO2 is the main source of emission and where the temperature is falling with altitude (Figure 2).

Given historical climate and physics, the only way that implicit endorsement means «implicitly endors [ing] that humans are a cause of warming» where «a» is something less than primary (that is, over half) is if there is some as - yet undiscovered sink absorbing human CO2 emissions and, simultaneously, an as - yet undiscovered source of CO2 that is releasing it into the atmosphere - and moreover, the CO2 from this mysterious source just happens to possess a carbon isotope signature that matches fossil fuel CO2 as a total coincidence.

So if you get in the business of limiting CO2 emissions, of taxing CO2 emissions, of creating a value in CO2 emissions where people trade them in this emissions trading scheme, you go to the coal plants first because of the fact that that's the greatest source — single source — of CO2 that there is.»
