The scientific study of onloy a handful of scientists known for hyping garbage? Sure.
At least in America, we still have our brains.

You have brains... but do you use them?:hmm:
To add to TDK's post, yes, Earth's temperatures have been evolving since the creation of it roughly 4.5 billion years ago... and yes, we shouldn't all jump to the conclusion that recent warming with Earth is spelling out our doom as Al Gore says, but what we can't afford is to ignore the simple fact that our climate is changing, and whatever the cause may be, we need to keep our minds open and our sense about us. We need to remember that we play half the game in heating Earth's surface and we do cause some of the problems with the greenhouse effect, though the other half is natural.
Are temperatures up? Yes. Is the pollution level up (this includes CFCs)? Yes. Should we be concerned? Yes. Should we think this is our doom? Certainly not. Should we start focusing more on studying the cycles Earth goes through? Absolutely. Should we try to decrease the amount of pollutants we emit (including carbon dioxide)? Absolutely.
