Zeuspaul & Arni,

can't check out the link right now (no response), so this is off the top of my head (so take it with a grain of salt):

who is the Heritage foundations

The Heritage Foundation is a think tank way over in the conservative republican camp. Personally, I would trust them about as much as the Tobacco Institute. Impartially, I'd say their advice on environmental policy is about as mainstream as that of Friends of the Earth.

why use 1992 statistics

Maybe because every year since then has been among the hottest on record? Or because since then our accurracy in measuring global temperature has improved a lot? OK, to be fair: I don't know.

even if we are not sure would you bet your planet on it?

Exactly - as painful as it may be, at this point the only prudent action is to reduce the suspected causes of a suspected problem. The need for being so cautious stems from the huge downside risk of it turning out to be an actual problem for human life on this planet. Call it hedging...
