Methane
A Natural Cause of Greenhouse Gas
By
Brian Thomas, M.S.
Data collected through the 1980’s and 1990’s strongly
suggested that the earth was warming.
Some scientists believe the phenomenon is man-made
(anthropogenic), primarily due to fossil fuel combustion that, we are told,
emits greenhouse gases.
Other researchers are convinced that the warming trend
was caused naturally, perhaps by an increase in the sun's radiation.
Resolution of these debates seems a long way off, but a
new discovery may add weight to the idea that the earth and everything in and
around it, including the atmosphere, was designed by God.
Oceanographer David Karl at the University of Hawaii at
Manoa has recently been examining a problem called the "methane
enigma."
There has been a mysteriously high concentration of
methane in the ocean's surface waters, indicating that this gas was being
produced in the sea.
Methane is a more potent greenhouse gas than carbon
dioxide, and fortunately maintains an atmospheric blanketing layer that
supports life on earth.
Many scientists fear that too much methane in the
atmosphere, however, would cause too thick a blanket and that this could become
potentially harmful to the planet.
The methane enigma has now been at least partially
solved.
According to Karl's research, bacteria are converting methylphosphonates
into methane in the oceans.
The methane diffuses from there into the atmosphere.
We have long known that bacteria help to maintain a
proper balance of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, and oxygen levels in the
atmosphere.
Bacteria are now known to play a vital role in
maintaining methane levels as well.
This makes sense within the creation science model--a
loving God created a robust atmosphere, complete with bacterial systems that
balance amounts of atmospheric gases in order to support life.
