Check this out: http://rainforests.mongabay.com/09-carbon_emissions.htm

I find this interesting, we remain a nuke powerhouse: http://photos.mongabay.com/09/nuclea...0-2030-568.jpg

And if we stop CO2 right now! Not just the increase but the current output:

I see. So you think the ones that are working on finding a cure for cancer think Global Warming is a hoax?

That sure beats the Hell out of letting people like Rush Limbaugh tell you what to believe.
I agree. So why take current theory as fact, and ridicule those who are skeptical?

That's part of their problem, the incredible (literally) quality of their implicitly approved spokesfolks. BTW, Where are all the others, Sarah, the Michelles, Ted, ect? The klown kar awaits its regulars.

Kucinich? I like Dr Kaku but when it comes to politics he's a bit nutty. There's Dr Kaczynski too. Or perhaps I should go with LaRouche.

But my choices are a single popular professor or a single popular talk show host. I MUST believe what I'm told.

In other words you're going to side with the fat junior college dropout.

You can run, but you can't hide.

Your side is the stupid side.
