Dr Syed Ameen,

So, if I understand what you have written correctly

energy generated (and turned into heat*) from
1) explosives +
2) fossil fuel used to generate heat** +
3) man-made (forest) fires

is significant (>1000ppm? >10ppm?) compared with that generated in lightning, volcanos, and natural (forest) fires?

I notice that you don't include energy from the sun, nor geothermal (other than from volcanos).

*directly or indirectly
**includes a fraction of that used to generate electricity, but not that used to make plastics etc

Have you done this calculation (spherical cows are OK), or just speculating?

Regards
lanecove
