Supporters of the Kyoto treaty, give up. When NPR runs a segment that shows that Kyoto is as dumb as everyone else knows it is, it's time to give it up.
So, loony environmentalists, in order to effectively comply with Kyoto, each country needs to raze their leafy plants and trees. Nice.
I didn't think so.

In the last chapter of "Slander", Ann Coulter said the left was clinging to charges that man causes "global warming" because it was the only issue in which it would take Republicans a thousand years to prove them wrong.
Well, it looks like the schedule's been moved up, LOL.
I guess now they'll have to find a way to blame greenhouse gas production by trees on Bush.

I remember just a few years ago, it was all blamed on cow farts -- so in order to stop global warming we had to stop eating beef. Yeah, that one got them real far, too.

There could be man made parts to global warming, however, from alot of reading I have been doing into this subject, they may be offsetting the potential for another mini ice age, such as the Earth had between the 1400's and 1800's. My opinion has changed from believing that it is happening to "I'm not sure." Too much conflicting evidence. The leftoids need to stop with the hyperinflated rhetoric and concentrate on true science.
Anyhow, cow farts. Didn't Pelosi author that study?

No, Pelosi's study was cow patties...
And yes, there's SO much conflicting evidence, I don't think we'll ever be able to determine the solution. For example, when clearcutting was going on at a huge rate in central and south America, the global amount of evil ozone was reduced -- so should we clear-cut all trees to save the ozone layer?

I read Michael Crichtons "State of Fear" over Christmas, and started doing more research. You remember that I used to believe that it was happening. Evidence changes that.
I think that one of the problems we see is that the global warming believers rely on computer models, rather then hard scientific research. They also miss the point that the Earth is always in flux. Plates move, volcano's go off, ice melts, etc. The Sun puts out more radiation or less. It could be a good year for plankton or a bad year, meaning more CO2 to O2 or less conversion.
The true believers do not want to hear anything to the opposite, or that even says "we do not really know." If man is creating issues, I would like to know. Flourocarbons were bad. That was proven. What is happening with CO2, methane, etc, is unknown. But it cannot be discussed with the True Believers, just like one cannot discuss politics with Surrender Monkeys rationally. Which is a shame.

Very true that evidence changes things. After reading that book, all I have to say is "Hockey Stick Graph."

why dont you all stop talking about cow farts and who studied them or not - get off your computers and DO something about it? instead of talking?? When has simple discussing who is right or wrong ever done anything?
Hitler was wrong about what he did - but he didnt sit around and talk he did something!
need i go on?
