- The IPCC doctrine which has long been promoted goes as follows.
We don’t have good numbers for the rest of it-oceans, soils, biosphere–though rough estimates are orders of magnitude higher, dwarfing human CO2.
So we ignore nature and assume it is always a sink, explaining the difference between the two numbers we do have.
