Well, so long as they are sure. I should sell my car, house right away and go live up a tree and eat grass all day.
Rather than getting the facts then informing people sensibly, the are trying to scare everyone with what they admit is guess work, and then trying to find the evidence to support it.

Exactly!This is a relativley new science.We have not been keeping detailed records for a long enough period to be able to say that statistically it is proven that.....We have only been able to gaze down at our planet since the 60's and the science involved in studying our planet is a new one that is still setting out it's parameters.Thus no one can be that emphatic about what may happen in the future.Let's by all means not pollute our air more than we can as frankly we have to breathe it and lets try and keep the earth as pristine as possible because we have to live here having no where else to go.I'm more concerned about the heavy industrial polluters mainly because it impacts directly on peoples health.Increased numbers of athsma sufferers is something to worry about NOW rather than a possible rising of temperatures that may well be a natural cycle of the planet anyway.
