Warming has been occurring since the last ice age 100,000 years ago at a steady and chaotic rate. Oceans have been rising at a steady by chaotic rate for the last 10,000 years. To say that humans are primarily the cause of global warming is like saying we are the primary cause of floods or hurricanes.

So what you are actually talking about is anthropogenic factors that influence global warming that are actually minuscule when compared to the big picture. The current Eco-systems have negative dampening factors that balance out the positive factors of global warming. My research shows that the suns energy fluctuations are the elephant in the Eco room. Just go lookup the Solomon series: The Deniers- www.canada.com/nationalpost

A thought: Suppose nature produces a fungus that starts eating up all chlorophyll type plant life and emits volumes of methane gases. It creates a positive tipping point that drives up the atmospheric temperature and starts ice melting. Since this is natural, and according to Eco-purists, humans should do nothing to circumvent this event. It\'s the new mother nature taking over. Such pompous lunacy.

Since ancient times, humans have continuously erred on their hysterical conclusions of threats to the common good. They have fallen for pseudo-hype rather then real science that is occurring now with global warming, only now they are trying to cover both ends of the temperature scale by renaming it \'climate change\'. Might as well call religion- progress.]]> Sun, 20 Jul 2008 16:32:01 PST
