Al, > I don't like your use of the word "religion" applied to this topic. The evidence of GW is overwhelming. The evidence of global warming also being treated as a "religion" is overwhelming. I call it such because it would make Pascal's Wager more applicable. Only problem is that when you confuse the science with dogma, you're blurring lines between fact and faith. Tenchusatsu

The evidence of GW is overwhelming. While the current direction of planet temps (including mars and pluto) can be confirmed to be on the rise - co2 has not been proven to be the cause.

>> The evidence of GW is overwhelming. I can't really improve on this guy's remarks, and you can't either: "Unlike many people, I am well acquainted and respect the co2 warming idea, but in its pure form, which actually allows for the cooling coming now! There in lies the problem. We can't know till after the period that is coming up through 2030 whether co2 is really a player or not. The threat of not only oceanic cycles cooling the earth, but the suns lack of intensity and increased volcanic and seismic activity could mean that as some papers in the early 90s (and dismissed by many) opined we would be as cold as back in the early 1800s. What you see now may just be the beginning. One thing we do know, that we should be skeptical of any future event, no matter what we believe. I will leave you with this. Common sense dictates that a trace gas needed for life on the planet would not be the cause for destroying life on the planet. Common sense dictates that what has happened before without man can happen again with man. Common sense would dictate that you not believe me, or any one else, but go look for YOURSELF. If its important enough for you to be happy with what I said, or to be mad as all get out at what I said, you owe it to yourself to go read all sides of the argument. To be informed, and not to simply throw stones." -- Joe Bastardi
