Importance of Carbonic Acid/Temperature of the Ground by Dag Stomberg (St. Andrews, Scotland) 5 Stars
April 29, 2009
The Nobel-winning Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius had predicted and accurately calculated GLOBAL WARMING from fossil fuel combustion. Arrhenius' greenhouse law reads: "if the quantity of carbonic acid increases in geometric progression, the augmentation of the temperature will increase in arithmetic progression." This simplified expression is still used. This is a book for a better understanding of what we face.
