So the anthropogenic emissions make the volcanic ones look weak and meager, not the other way round, and that's not an opinion. [It's 0.2 billion tons from volcanoes compared to 24 billion tons from anthropogenic sources - the numbers vary a bit per year, but the overall picture stays the same]
Also, volcanoes were around forever, so these emissions are part of the natural balance, while human emissions are not.
Sorry for spoiling that, I really am, it's just that I'm quite sensitive about climate change inaccuracies designed to make climate scientists (and "liberals") look ridiculous.
Well done sir!
