...release of carbon dioxide from the burning of coal would probably cause the temperature of the atmosphere to rise, he said. However, he added that, "There are so many factors involved and no one knows how the long range cycle of warming and cooling will work...
...effects of a higher carbon dioxide level will not be known for ten to 20 years, Heinrich Holland, professor of Geology, said yesterday...
