My question is this, although its clear that man is contributiing to the heating aspect at this point, how much is that contributiuon and is it worth the heavy financial burden that it appears it will be to make the changes that many claim. If things will just continue to warm up regardless of what "we" do, is the fallout of economic costs really a good idea?

If what is said in the article (regardless who printed it as the gist is from the scientists themselves) is true...what are the real ramifications of just staying the course (and as will be necessary one day anyhow), finding alternative energy sources?

Not sure why that wouldn't be just as important facet of this debate as anything else.

Again, and this is where i have no idea, the earth has for its entire existance warmed and cooled. Undeniable fact. It has done so just in my lifetime as a matter of fact. So to what degree do we "tip the apple cart" chasing down a solutiuon that will never work to the degree we wish because of the cycle of warming/cooling the planet has always experienced?

There are valid points on both sides of this thing...and extremists as well, which are illustrated in this very thread alone.

Gore is not " a side" of things. He is an extreme part of one side who has swallowed all the attention the rest of his "side" should be getting...which is unfortunate. There IS a middle ground on this stuff but he has now won awards in 3 distinct categories and become the spokesman/martyr for something that simply does not exist as we know it.


he does so much more harm than good with his BS it's truly sad....because i do not believe ANYONE claims that climate change is happening, hat some of the more curious ones want to know is WHY its happening....he claims to have answered that and has been factually proven to be completely incorrect in his answers. He is, as the left likes to throw out there, "fearmongering". And its making him way more wealthy than he already was.
See the silliness?
