Claude, your response seemed a bit flippant - "if mother nature cooperates"-lol? Mother nature may not cooperate, then what-lol? The Bush administration is not taking the tact you mention. They are not funding the research and Bush's last science head was rewriting the science reports to downplay the severity of the research. The science head promptly resigned when the papers reported what he was doing. Bush denies global warming is a problem. Christy Todd Whitman was not allowed to say that global warming was real when she headed the EPA. In fact some lower personnel released some reports that said just that and there was quite an up roar when she had to squash the report. Most of the big oil companies (which have a lot of control in our country right now)like Exxon are taking the tobacco companies line and using all their power to down play the problem of global warming concerns as complete nonsense. Really, what the sun is or is not doing is moot. The fact of the matter is the temperatures will keep rising as we put more and more carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. And eventually the billions of tons of methane will be released by melting permafrost in the artic and methane is 20 times worse than carbon dioxide. The major immediate problems will probably be flooding of the coastal cities where most major cities are located and the displacement of over a billion people; shutting down the gulf stream (it is already down 30%, which would put europe in the freezer) and the desertification of the midwest and California. You may see this in your lifetime Claude. Meanwhile, Bush and a few other people fiddle while the world burns!-lol Our children and grandchildren are going to wonder what in the hell were we thinking. And they are not going to be pleased with our disregard for their lives and planet! Just as they are not going to be happy about paying of the huge deficits we are leaving them in the US.
