I fimly believe "Man Made" global warming (the planet is warming naturally and theres nothing we can do about it) should be classed along the lines of the Milennium Bug, and is a simple handy tool to raise taxes, keep businesses in line and create jobs.
The Millennium Bug was real, and it took a lot of time, effort, and money to stop it having any major effect (ask anyone who worked in IT at the time). We spent 15 months investigating, debugging, and replacing systems to minimise any issues.

simply, that Man-Made CO2 is such a small percentage of the worlds CO2 let alone the Greenhouse gasses, I can't believe that it can affect the earths "biology" so much.



I don't believe that there is a gamble to be made.
But what if you are wrong? Not really fair on the next generation to say "oops, sorry", is it?
