I agree that those who want to debate global warming should do so in a different thread. I don't mind an occasional informational post, but extensive debate on the topic should be done elsewhere, IMO.

I posted my thoughts on the subject and why I don't think debating it here makes much difference a few weeks ago:

The U.S. is only a small part of the world, and the rest of the world wants to enjoy the same living standard that Americans have. China and other countries may just use up resources at a torrid pace no matter what Gore does. The best bet is probably to try to develop alternative energy that would be a viable option for developing countries both in terms of cost and environmental impact. The U.S. could stop using environmentally unfriendly energy completely and it may not make any difference longer term if the whole world doesn't change.

If the world demand for base metals increases even more to try to curb global warming, that's great, but that could happen whether human-induced global warming is for real or not.
