A recent paper by Wolfgang Knorr indicates that the fraction of CO2 absorbed by carbon sinks has not changed since 1850. This was in complete contrast to quite frankly scaremongering article in the Nature magazine that the oceans were struggling to keep up with rising emissions by which the absorption rate had fallen by 10% and was continuing to fall.

Study which disputes the fall

The offending article in Science Daily

This planet we live on has the ability to cope with the pollution better than some experts give it credit for. I will say that yes both sides have wingnuts ..........
