    I understood it better after I saw a documentary on PBS about the glaciers that showed pictures of them "calving". My mom and dad went on a cruise to Alaska and saw glaciers. Previous generations might not have been aware of the impact of modern living on the environment; I'm glad there has been "consciousness raising" about it.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!

    The Earth has been warming and cooling since its begining. Humans have very little impact on the warming or cooling cycles, especialy when it comes to CO2 emissions.

    In the mid 70's we were warned that CO2 was going to plunge us into a new Ice Age, so we started curbing our CO2 output. So, since we have curbed our emissions more and more since the dire predictions of the 70's, why is a warming trend in climate change happening? It couldnt possibly have anything to do with solar activity could it?

    One of the co founders of Green Peace left the orginization because of GP's participation in the global warming movement. GW is big business, and gets big money. It is also holding back third world nations from developing. Keeping third world nations as third world nations is killing people.

    Ill make it easy for all of you to watch The Great Global Warming Swindle, link.
    I have a HUGE SIG!!!!

    The Great Global Warming Swindle is just about as credible as "Loose Change" - the documentary about the 9/11 conspiracy theory.

    Too many people consuming too many resources and producing too much waste.

    Why does someone have to "believe" in Global Warming? Isn't the evidence of the damage we are doing to this planet apparent to those without blindfolds on?

    I don't "believe" in electricity, or flight of heavier than air crafts or that the earth is round.

    Somethings just "are" and don't, in my opinion, require belief or non-belief.

    Global Warming is one of those.
