6/5     Look, it's simple; there is no academic debate about the causes
        or existence of global warming.  It is accepted by anyone who
        is willing to look at the facts.  The effects, the scope may still
        be debatable, but no one reputable is disputing that CO2 emissions
        are increasing global temperature, right now.  -tom
        \_ Um, yeah there is tom.  Shut up and go away.
        \_ BTW, global warming (if it's real) is not the only problem
           conservation and "green" energy development try to solve.  There's
           still the problem of running out of fossil fuels.  So we still need
           to conserve and tap into renewable energy sources.
           \_ actually, we don't. if we start running out then the price will
              rise and these other sources will be economically feasible. until
              then you're just screwing yourself by worrying about it.
                \_ yeah, look how well waiting until it was a problem is
                   working for California!  -tom
                   \_ California is in a mess it's in precisely because it
                      didn't let the market play out.  You are an idiot, tom.
                   \_ California's problem isn't that we're running out of
                      fossil fuels. Get a clue.
