| Re: New Endangered Species The hard reality of this is no one really knows the true cause and effect of mankind's activities in relation to the climate.
Simply put, there are valid arguments and data for, just as there are valid arguments and data against.
Pro warmers often ignore the effect of sunspots, etc, and the anti global warming side often ignores the fact that CO2 is a known greenhouse gas and the amounts in the air are very high. IMO the single biggest problem with all of this is the cause and effect issue-> Does CO2 cause increased warming, or does warming cause increased CO2? (The answer is yes to both questions)
I have "followed" this topic for years, and I personally am undecided on the topic. Too many unknowns and conflicting information.
With all that said, IMO we should do what we reasonably can to reduce these emissions. |
