Response to comments by John W. Russell on 'Energy conservation in the Earth's crust and climate change'

摘要

We would like to thank the editor for the opportunity to respond to comments by John W. Russell concerning the paper (Mu, Y., and X. Mu. 2013. Energy conservation in the Earth's crust and climate change. J. Air Waste Manage. Assoc. 63:150-160). As far as the result of present literature retrieval is concerned, there are many schools of thought concerning the reasons for climate change. In Hay et al. (2002), such hypotheses have been classified into 11 different descriptions. Although it has so far not been reported that huge exploitation of fossil energy caused insulation seals of the earth's crust to be damaged, the correlation between the increase of terrestrial heat flow and climate change is well documented.
