John,

global warming? Sure, the trend of the last 13,000 years is obvious indeed, we are coming out of a glacial period.
Man made? That's pretty much a question of which church you spend most of your time tending to.
Catastrophic consequences? A bunch of crap. You need to spend a little bit of time with Lomborg and others as opposed to believing all of what you read in your favorite newspaper NY Times.

Here is the original article from British "The Telegraph", a newspaper well up to any of those levels NYT believe they may reach in their own minds.

BTW, that 1421 Chinese cruise may indeed be a fairytale. But enjoy the other hard evidence of serious manipulations by those "scientists" who obviously find it necessary to commit to serious manipulations to "prove" what "everybody knows".

BTW I agree MUCH more should be invested in moving away from our dependency on oil and carbon and in particular so on the ME countries. But environmentalists and socialists as well as the whole green movement do what they can to counter such policies. Just imagine Germany, where right now 30% of the energy is based on nukes, which by law forced over the country by same lobby groups must be closed down by year 2021.
Replaced by what???

First of all we need more nuclear energy, build more plants. And while doing that invest heavily in energy saving measures as well as technologies, which could in some not too distant future truly replace oil. No doubt the very day oil is gone those new sources will be found out of pure necessity because such is man.
Why not trying to accelerate that process right now?
