I highly suggest you watch Al Gore's: An Inconvinient Truth and read up a little more on this stuff. The CO2 we are putting into the air is MASSIVELY higher because of of us when compared to the last 500 000 years. There are some facts in that movie that will blow your mind. Global Warming is happening wether you want to believe or not. |

Here's how the global temperatures have been for oh say the last 500 million years:

So, yeah, the globe is warming. It has been warming for more than a million years, and as you can see we've been due for it. It's colder now than the Earth is usually, and it's going to take a lot of warming to get up to the point that the Earth tends to naturally gravitate towards (22C).

THANK YOU.
And does anyone remember when there was a WORLD WIDE "GLOBAL COOLING" scare in the 1970's???!
Hugh. What happened to that theory? It was fairly pervasive too.
This warming is all just a natural cycle that affects the earth over years, decades, centuries, millenia, etc. We simply have to accept it and deal with it.
(And, no, I am not advocating to stop trying to pollute less. We should do that as a general rule, treat our environment with care, I'm simply stating our polluting isn't the primary cause for the earth's natural warming tendency)
Here. Some reading on the matter.

The media and governments fucking blow this shit out of the water. Using the "scare" of global warming brought on by us, by our ways, to try to enact change. Nothing wrong w/ reducing our polluting ways, but they aren't what's causing this. It's just the tag line the media and governments use.
