Yes, good article, reminds me of the Y2K problem.
Forest fires are not helping the cause with the CO2 problem! There are a number of fires in Canada and the U.S.A and around the world. This will have an effect in the future years.

In my opinion, man can't control everything.... Not mother nature! nor a fires by human intentions......The Planet is in a cycle, fire, wind, water, earth!

These events have an extremely larger impact on Global warming, than humans do.
