Simultaneous warming on Earth and Mars suggests that our planet's
recent climate changes have a naturaland not a human- inducedcause,
according to one scientist's controversial theory.

Earth is currently experiencing rapid warming, which the vast majority
of climate scientists says is due to humans pumping huge amounts of
greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. (Get an overview: "Global
Warming Fast Facts".)

A tiny bit of perspective: Take two bottles of soda water, put one in the
fridge for a few hours. Open the both. Did you notice how much more CO2
stays dissolved in the cold one? Imagine the amount of CO2 dissolved in the
oceans. (yes, the temp swing is bigger but the oceans are bigger than a
soda bottle. The higher CO2 in the atmosphere could be due to the warming
rather than the other way around. But, there's no money in that and a LOT
in the other.

Do you suppose your hypothesis is testable?

What is the isotopic distribution of carbon dioxide dissolved in ocean
water? What is it in the air? What is it in fossil fuels? Has and
if
so, how has it been changing in each?
