I wasn't meaning to talk specifically about the rain-forest, but point out how pollution and deforestation both have been proven to cause less rainfall. The links you provided dispute my theoretical concepts on the grounds of pollution /where/ it has been measured in the past, but not deforestation on a world-wide scale, nor world-wide air pollution rates, especially in developing nations. Taking all this into consideration, I cannot however overlook the possibility that, as you pointed out, the world is in a warming trend not fully explained by our glutton waste or pollution. I guess time will tell. In any event, I think there's nothing left to debate on this subject. And regarding the "despot" dictator overlord, I think we can both agree that's an impossible and undesired notion. Thanks for the indulgence.
