Well here's Google to the rescue.
According to Scientific American and the USGS, world-wide totals of volcano CO2 emissions are estimated at 200 million tons annually.
Automotive and industrial emissions are estimated at 24 billion tons annually.
And best of all, we have complete control over the human based emissions.
Here's the article for your consumption.
Scientific American, volcanos vs humans.
Google some more. The Scientific American article only discusses CO2 emissions, and if you read my post carefully, you would find that I only wrote about particulate emissions.
Man, and to think that I thought you were implying something!
I'll make sure I only take your words literally from now on.
You sure set me straight!
No need to get indignant, because you made an incorrect assumption.
