Neither of these links say that. They do make the point that we have a lot more
dense undergrowth now that people (read-non indians who now control the land)
aren't doing regular burns, and that some places that were savannahs are now
forest. Both are valid points. But neither addresses in any quantative sense are
our current state of forest cover vs. what was here.
But again, its all a red herring anyway. Whatever there is or was has *nothing*
to do with our CO2 output. It was all here (a bit more or less) happily
converting CO2 long before the fist US factory was built.
