Do not get your information about science from the media or alarmist mouthpieces, go read peer reviewed journals to see what scientists actually say.

I see this type of statement used more and more to explain what is going on. It is not 'global warming', it is now 'climate change'. There is always a new improved slogan to justify someone elses opinion. Every hear the phrase 'If you don't like the weather wait a day (or a few hours)"? This is the weather and climate on a grand million year scale.

It seems like the revisionism of people gets more and more extreme when they find that their pet cause has become increasingly difficult to justify.

I used to have a link of a webpage that did NOTHING but link stories about global warming. It was HILARIOUS. They would have link stories published within DAYS of each other. One would directly contradict the other. I wish I could find it again just to spread the humor.

Now before you go all enviromentalist on me, I DO believe that there is Global Warming, Climate Change, or whatever you want to call it. I see the Earth as a large thermodynamic engine driven by the sun. If you look at weather as nothing more than the transfer of heat and energy from one location to another things make a lot more sense. You have the same amount of energy that is being distributed in different proportions(<- not the right word but it will do) based on many many variables. Unfortunately, you have people who do not know, understand, or refuse to acknowledge some of these variables.

The Earth will survive, of that I am certain. However, just like the millions of other species that once inhabited this globe, humanity just may become extinct due to changes in the enviroment that we could not adapt to.

To think that mankind can CHANGE the enviroment in any meaningful way considering the size and energy of the system is pure hubris.

Using this concern to influence and control people based on the lie that they have to do something about it is pure evil.

While I don't really disagree with the majority of what you say, to assume that mankind has not affected the climate is naive at best. Yes, theclmate on earth was not static before humans, but we are having an effect on it.
