Global warming ? Could be but i doubt it. And even if ; there is no reason to believe that we are responsible for it. Just a random thing to happen every couple thousand years. And who cares anyway ? Neither you or anybody else will live long enough to be witness of the world going down. Enjoy live.

best wishes

The next generations are responsible for them self. And in case that they can't find a solution for their problems ; well... they can always pray. You US people believe in GOD so you might as well trust him then.

You are just very stupid. Global warming is proven and that we contribut a lot to the climate change is proven to.

The IPCC http://www.ipcc.ch/

They just published there new report a wile ago.

Most of the posters here are too young to remember the fact that 30 years ago, there was a scientific consensus that a new ice age was coming (caused by humans shockingly enough), and we were all going to die. 30 years later, there is now a scientific consensus that the earth is going to boil (caused once again by humans shockingly enough), and that we are all going to die.
The people who say nobody in the scientific community disagrees with this are the kool-aid drinkers, and the people who say humans have absolutely no impact on the environment just aren't very smart. While there is plenty of debate in the scientific community about global warming and just how much we contribute to the cause (and yes folks, many scientists do disagree. Don't drink what Alpha Al is selling you), nobody can realistically argue we as humans don't contribute at least slightly to the problem.

The simple fact of the matter is the amount of time we are living in is completely meaningless from an environmental perspective. It is extremely arrogant and self centered to believe that we are the sole cause for what occurs on earth. To believe we are the sole cause for the current warming of the planet means you need to discredit all the evidence and proof of prior periods of cooling and warming on this planet that have happened for millions of years before we got here and will continue to happen for millions of years once we burn out. The earth has been covered in ice before, and evidence taken from ice plugs in the arctic have proven the earth has been far warmer than it is now.

Until archeologists begin pulling Cadillac Escalades and Hummers from the ground, don't tell me we are the sole cause of what is happening with our planet. The truth is somewhere inbetween, and mindlessly following what you believe and name calling those who disagree do nothing for your case.

This is total rubbish. There was some speculation about it and considerable media coverage. However it was never anything remotely close to a scientific consensus, it was a small minority position. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_cooling

Surprisingly enough the people who have spent their entire professional careers studying the climate are well aware that the earth goes through periods of warming and cooling.

Your argument is logically flawed. The earth has gone through periods of warming and cooling; that doesn't imply that the current warming is or is not primarily driven by human activity. To determine that requires a level of knowledge that no-one here possesses.

NickyC - A few questions:

What percentage of scientists believe that the earth is going to boil?

Do you realise that we all are going to die?

When was the earth covered in ice?

Why would an archologist need to pull Escalades and Hummers from the ground when they could just get one from a car dealer?
