The recent Himalyan Blunder committed by IPCC is well nailed. I would like to contribute and Join such groups. Can u help ?

The Earth has been hotter, the Earth has been colder, (in fact I if I understand correctly we are technically in what is termed an Ice Age, defined by the presence of ice at the poles). The problem is that as a human race we have the ability and the technology to change the environment. The politicians are keen to jump on the bandwagon as this global warming issue is an easy way to gain votes, this is because the ordinary man doesn't realised the cost of the implications of trying to fix something that we may or may not have influenced in the first place! Incidentally as people have mentioned CO2 levels have also been higher, and this is just a few million years before our time!!! They obviously fail to mention this in any pro global warming argument!!! CO2 cycles and global temperature fluctuations do co incide to a point, but no one knows how much the current rise in CO2 levels can be attributed to human influences. Based on this what right do we have to meddle with the current climate? What if we triggered a severe global cooling and the end result was a 'snowball earth' event, with the earth reduced to barren tundra? Wouldn't we be worse off? Passive measures such as reducing CO2 emssions of industry and the human population can only be a good thing, we should all aim to have a minimum impact on the environment, but I feel one needs to be wary of the 'global warming' marketing tool that has and will be implemented increasingly in the future in order to sell 'green products' at an inflated price so we can all feel good about 'saving' the environment from a completely natural process over which we have no control.

Politics should not even be a part of the conversation. Basic idea: Humans vs. Weather In the past, humans/animals survived the climate changes by migrating to areas that still had conditions suitable to life. Now, In the future, we have technology. I don't know if you realize it or not, but we are getting to a point where we can alter the environmental conditions through eco-engineering. Ex. Creating massive artificial clouds to reflect solar energy, thus reducing our atmospheric temperature. So, we must be prepared for a climate change here in Northern America regardless of the nature of that change.

How do the warming theorists square with that one? Oh, there is a difference between climate and weather....well if the weather is cooler then it must be global cooling if it has lasted ten years and counting. Check out this website. Call your congressman and senators. If the cap and trade bill is passed we will pay 3X for energy...gas, electric and heating oil. Maybe you can afford it but I'm retired and can't. http://www.isthereglobalcooling.com/ There seems to be cooling temps since the 1998 highs. How do the warming theorists square with that one?

The amount of deficit spending and the ongoing government debauchery is the true threat to future generations, not this false notion of global warming.
