The problem is that it is impossible to say with any certainty that man's activity is causing the observed warming trend and the cost of reducing greenhouse gas emissions is enormous. It has to mean either falling living standards or strictly enforced worldwide population control or both. I doubt any existing gov't would survive the consequences. We'd better get this right. A false positive can have drastic consequences.

Click the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 links in here. They show that a mini ice age existed prior to about 1700 and that we may just be pulling out of that. They also show that fluctuations of the size we are seeing are not at all uncommon.
