A bit too short...
  Susan German (Hallsville, MO) on April 23, 2011
  The Case for the Balance Carbon Budget provides information about how humans are increasing the amount of carbon dioxide in the air. The podcast is about 5 minutes in length. The podcast could be made longer or viewers will need to go to the webinar the podcast came from to get more information.
