There may be hype, but the hype is based on a very real problem and is perhaps a rather good thing...

Now that I'm done with my mini rant, I do have to say that the article is ridiculous. There are so many more climate change things to write about. I guess they got tired of blaming genetics.
As I said, I believe we should all be more eco-friendly or eco-conscious, but this global warming stuff has really been blown out of proportion in my opinion and now it seems that the media and/or government is using it more as a "scare" tactic and veering focus away from the "real" problems.

However, in reference to the article -- learned in psychology that two items may have a correlation to each other (one goes up, the other goes up), but it does NOT mean that one is a cause of the other, it's just coincidence. This seems very plausible, however far fetched. lol.
