		<description><![CDATA[At a recent bookfair in Toronto, members of an organization called, “Supreme Master&#8221; handed out leaflets on climate change. The main thrust of their argument is that greenhouse gases are not the major cause of global warming, but de-forestation for cattle grazing land is. To support this contention they offer various statistics, some of which are interesting, and could well be true, e.g. Over 75% of tree cutting in the Amazon rainforest is done for meat production. Livestock produces more greenhouse gases than all world-wide transportation combined. The Arctic sea reflects about 80% of the sun’s heat, stabilizing the colder temperatures of the ocean. Greenland surface ice loss is now 400% greater than fifteen years ago. Unless urgent action is taken, all the ice in the arctic could be gone by the end of the summer melt season of 2012. That methane, a greenhouse gas currently being released from arctic permafrost and bubbling up through lakes is accelerating global warming in ways not currently accounted for. Research by Dr. Gregory Ryskin at Northwestern University indicates that methane explosions from the ocean caused extinctions of ninety per cent of marine species and 755 of terrestrial species some 250 million years ago.
