The Big Story Question

Global wa wa?

Yeah, the big topic, global warming. So now we here that a scientific organization claiming that there is a more than 90% chance that humans are responsible for Global Warming. Okay, I'm fine with them saying. Just one thing, PROVE IT! I'm against pollution of course, I'm tired of breathing crap all the time, but to say that it will cause the extinction of humans is ludicrous. The Earth goes through temperature shifts, and we just came out of the little ice age. Of course the temperature will warm up, the climate is just shifting like it always does. There is no way that humans are causing enough pollution to create a greenhouse of all the Earth. It is just a crazy idea.

My response? Let's stop using global warming as an agenda. If it is fact, present it as fact, but don't let environmental groups scare with claims of global warming. Let's get rid of pollution because we know for a fact that it's not good to breathe. We should protect our environment, but not because of fear of our demise, but for the respect of our dependance on it.
