1500 climatalogists working for the last 5 years report that global warming is proceeding at an unprecedented rate due to human emissions of greenhouse gasses & you don't believe its due to us? Cost to insurance globally for disasters has gone from 2 million to 30 million annually in the last decade and you think it's just natural progression of planetary change? Richard Smalley Nobel Prize winner says, "This rapid change in the composition of the atmosphere has happened over the last 200 years--it is more rapid a change than anytime during the last 150,000 years of the planet." What is your "personally I believe" based on? A look at the research?

No offense intended, but in your imaginary world we will shift to alternative energy, it will be funded by...hmmm...maybe a tax on anybody who uses coal & gas?...hey, we won't mind that tax, as voters, now will we?...and those industries will gently fold up and go home, and give up billions of $ of income...and contribute to the parties' campaigns in spite of being shut down...and that would be a good thing, but not because it helps global warming, thats all coincidence and 1500 scientists around the world doing sophisticated computer modelling, well...they're just wrong!
