I mean look at the conservatives blaring about Obama's spending going to cost our future generations, what about the destruction we do to our planet and its longterm effects its been having (killing whole species as a regular affect, melting the ice caps, causing major weather phenomenon to occur, pollution advisories saying its too dangerous to go outside for too long on some days, etc, etc) and will get way worse if we don't stop it, eventually making it an unstoppable problem for future generations. Forget big spending that is being spent to dig us out of a hole our past presidents did nothing to prevent (such as a seriously unstable stock market because of people getting rid of regulations, not enough decent paying jobs are being produced at an even rate as the growing population, etc).

And, it seems obvious to many that since the computer models produced by the believers in global warming have never predicted any climate trend correctly that they are just nonsense intended to make them rich with research grants, or commissions on carbon trading.

It seems Al Gore could gain a billion dollars out of this, so who thinks he has any reason to tell the truth?

Michael Crichton summed this up best: we are so tiny and so insignificant in the greater scheme of earth's history, that to even think otherwise is to raise the pinnacle of human arrogance to a level never yet seen before.

We can't predict the weather two days out with a shred of accuracy, but we can somehow CHANGE the weather 100 years in the future? You give a monkey a brain and he'll swear he's the center of the universe.

You watch. Fourty years from now we'll be living off the scraps of a dead planet.

I guarantee that at least 75% of the people polled have no clue and are voting for what they want to happen....Thanks in large part to the disinformation campaign run by this administraton.

A cap and trade proposal is somewhere beyond stupid in a depressed economy.

It is not up to the government to stop global warming but each individual.
So, perhaps you could turn out the odd light, stop buying tanks for personal transport. Oh, and think!

There were several books on overpopulation and the greenhouse effect that said, by the early 21st century, that heck would be breaking loose.

It hasn't happened, according to the naysayers, in the past 30 years.

This "global warming" trend is so similiar to the 70s it's not even funny.

How are we (the human population) supposed to heed the warnings today?

I think the "boy has cried wolf" a bit too much.

Considering the many times it's happened prior to modern man...

I don't think the Saber Toothed Tigers were burning fossil fuels... but I'm only guessing... LOL
