#3 nonsense, at least insofar as this is a political invention of the UN dating back to the 60's. Call it an endless war tactic not unlike terrorism.

Mind you, I'm not saying that there isn't a global warming occurring but not primarily because of man. The Sun is in a hotter than normal period, the earth's electromagnetic field is thinning, and both of these items, among others I am not mentioning, occur periodically as a natural process of the earth/solar systems CYCLES.

In addition, there are large segments of the scientific community, who actually engage themselves in cosmological, earth and atomospheric disciplines, who say this politically inspired fearmongering is horse hooie. Some time check the list of signatures and their specialties, of the various scientific supporters of global warming(the political version). Start at the beginning. It's just as telling as the fact that dissenting views are rarely publicized though there are many.

ps the post I am responding to would be a good place for the republicans of this list to point out the lack of tolerance, and acceptance of diversity, of the left. Though I must admit I chuckled at HE too.
