I'm not saying your wrong, I'm saying that you don't have any evidence to back up what your saying. And the climatologists I talk to all tell me that the climate is getting warmer far faster then is natural. The temperature is supposed to increase in increments of a degree in a century, not in a few years.
The problem is that we don't even know what change in temperature is natural in the climate. We aren't even sure of all the causes of global warming.CO2 isn't a very good greenhouse gas, water-vapor is far more effective, sun-spot activity causes temperature change, and countless other things effect the climate.

I do agree that we should do our part, not because of the reasons given, but because the earth is our home, and there is no reason not to respect it. Don't believe all the doomsaying, the fact is that there is no eminent danger in the next 10-15-20+ years, and by that time we will have a better understanding whether the problem actually even exists and if it does, hopefully a solution.

What really needs to be done to help curb carbon emissions is to get rid of as many coal power plants as possible, and replace them with nuclear power. Oh, and stop using recycled paper products, for the reasons here:

Trees are the Answer
