Not to derail this topic, but to the best of my knowledge, the academic argument seems to be, "is global warming human caused, or a natural event that we may or may not be affecting?"
The answer would inherently have a huge weight on what actions to take. Cause if its all natural... why bother taxing the hell out of people and reverting to the stone age? Conversely, if its all us, it adds legitimate weight to the need to spend a ton of money on clean technologies and cutting back.
