"The planet's temperature curve rose sharply for almost 30 years, as global temperatures increased by an average of 0.7 degrees Celsius (1.25 degrees Fahrenheit) from the 1970s to the late 1990s. "At present, however, the warming is taking a break," confirms meteorologist Mojib Latif of the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences in the northern German city of Kiel. Latif, one of Germany's best-known climatologists, says that the temperature curve has reached a plateau. "There can be no argument about that," he says. "We have to face that fact."

The Earth has been warming for 20,000 years,since the last ice age, and will continue until the next ice age, with hot and cold cycles in between. Mankind if full of hot air thinking we can control it or cause it, but then some men, like Al Gore, are more full of hot air than others.

Until Ardipithecus Ramidus was recently found, probably 97% of anthropologists believed that Man evolved from Apes. But, Ardi has thrown a rather large wrench into the works of that theory.

The fact of the matter is, "accepted science" is merely that which is accepted at the time and is often proven wrong by new discoveries and better science. The inconvenient truth about CO2 and human activity is that the human contribution to the overall CO2 levels is really not that much. "Atmospheric CO2 concentrations rose from 288 ppmv in 1850 to 369.5 ppmv in 2000, for an increase of 81.5 ppmv,..."(CDIAC).

It is only "assumed" that the increase is the result of human activity because there does not appear to be any other explanation. It is "assumed" that volcanic activity has not increased. And it is "assumed" that this increase in CO2 has caused global warming of less than 1 degree centigrade. "...about 0.74°C (plus or minus 0.18°C) since the late-19th century, and the linear trend for the past 50 years of 0.13°C (plus or minus 0.03°C)" (from NOAA).

So, given all these "assumptions", it's still not much to be concerned about, and certainly not enough to sign away our national sovereignty by binding treaty to some 3rd World organization bent on our economic destruction. It is not enough to allow corrupt politicians to destroy our own economy by adding trillions to the national debt through ridiculous, “knee-jerk” taxation for “feel good” programs like Cap and Trade.

How about this. If humans cause the warming, and their breathing emits co2 which causes warming, I know how to cut the warming in half. We all hold our breath every other minute. Simple. But some will cheat, so Algore and his followers should hold their breath 80% of the time to balance it out. Then after a short period of time there will be no more warming problem and no one complaining about it.

Obviously, if we stop doing the things that cause global warming, we can lessen our impact on the climate.

It's the lazy and hysterical media that is spreading these false threats of climate crisis.
It doesn’t matter WHAT ANY OF THE SCIENTISTS SAY anymore because the public is getting intolerant and impatient for a promised crisis, therefore:
Sooner or later, it’s the deniers that will hold the majority of opinion because any fool can see that sustainability of this SAVE THE PLANET, can’t keep promising death for the next 100 years when the IPCC says we will all START to feel the effects of a “catastrophic climate crisis”. Public pressure will kill this already dead theory because the public is not experiencing the promised climate crisis, even after 23 years. I don’t see it, my neighbor doesn’t see it, and my family doesn’t see it. We have yet to meet anyone ourselves who has suffered from this so called crisis.
Sooner than later the global warming theory hand will have to be shown to the dealer because these threats of SAVE THE PLANET are unsustainable.
It’s “all in”, in this climate game and “death” is the last bet, the last promise, the last threat to our children.
You can’t have a little “catastrophic climate crisis.
It was a fad, a mistake, an error and history will not be kind.
Let the future begin.

Hmm, CO2 on 25% increase over the past 140 years. Since oxygen breathing forms of live emit CO2, what has been the increase in population of these species seen since 1869?

Volcanoes are also the largest of greehouse gas producers (i.e. CO2). How many volcanoes have erupted since 1869?

Food 4 Thought: The great glaciers were formed during the Ice Ages. Since we've not had an Ice Age for the past 850-630 million years i.e. the Cryogenian period), of course their melting...duh!~

You can argue all you want to about the data, gentlemen. The point is that the "Scientific Community" often gets it wrong and must change their whole dire consequences agenda over and over.

Believe if you want that the Earth is in a warming trend. SO WHAT???!!! There is absolutely NOTHING humans can do about it. NOTHING!!! It is absolutely absurd to think otherwise.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. Please demonstrate how you brilliant scientists are going to stop global warming. I can't wait to hear your arguments.

I believe that if humans ceased to exist tomorrow, the net effect on climate would be zero or so negligible as to be undetectable.
