I would rather use the analogy of pissing into a swimming pool. We are not contributing a statistically significant amount into the atmosphere and causing any sort of change. BUT, even if I were to take the leap and assume that we are contributing enough of anything to harm the atmosphere, you have to recognize that America can stop producing ANY CO2 and the rest of the world will more than make up for our contribution. China, Mexico, India and Russia will not change their ways no matter what America does. But again, I don't think we are contributing to anything. We are not at a precipice, we are experiencing natural temperature changes that have occured for millenia. How else did we emerge from previous ice ages? Why are polar ice caps increasing in size now? Why do polar caps on Mars fluctuate in size? Thanks again for visiting. Thanks WimW, for visiting and writing. :-)

The greenhouse effect for the planet is huge and that is not the problem. It is the "tiny" contribution of the CO2 we are adding that will get us into trouble. Compare it to a man standing in water that just reaches the top of his upper lip. Surely, you would argue, this guy is already coping with 5 feet of water, adding another half of an inch will not bother him.
