Do you think many people may consider it?

Can’t do it? But, everyone in the world is sure
there is consensus among an overwhelming
majority climatologists gw is man made!

Polls of average joe’s – like everyone posting here,
incl myself – carry the weight of diddly in terms of
scientific reality.

The only thing ‘man-made’ about global warming,
is the fearmongering.

What most global warming alarmists are missing is that there is evidence–most based on ice core samples over geologic time scales–for global temperature changes as extreme or greater than the current worst-case warming forecast models for 2100 (e.g. many degrees over a couple of decades compared to a few degres over a century).

Fiddling As The Earth Burns
By Captain Paul Watson

This week the United Nations issued a 92 page Biodiversity Outlook Report. Like every other U.N. previously released report, this warning will be predictably filed and ignored.

Evangelicals Do A 180
By Saul Rosenthal

We may be destined, sooner rather than later, to follow into extinction the thousands of failed species that have preceded us. And not necessarily out of inexorable entropy, evolutionary fatigue or decay, but out of a failed character, a moral failure, a failure to surmount the beast in us, the hate, the bigotry, the envy, the greed, the egomania, the vindictiveness, the hubris, the lust for power and profit, the drive for exploitation, for dominion over our fellow creatures
