Hasbeen,

Are you familiar with the phrase "long term trend"?

I have a question for all the warmists here that consider that demand driven industry is emitting CO2 that is changing the climate.

Demand for industry is driven by humans, right. So why not direct your energies into reducing the number of humans in the world?

It seems to me that would reduce demand for industry and consequently the CO2 levels and as a bonus we become more sustainable.

It has beed demonstrated that births can be reduced from 6.5 per woman to 1.7 by education in family planning and providing the means.

I find it perculiar that population reduction was not discussed at Kyoto, Copenhagen or in the Indonesian talk fest. Too hard maybe?

Unless we tackle the ever growing population anything else is simply moving the deck chairs.

Banjo,be careful what you wish for because many of the elites are working on drastically reducing the world's population.These lunatics may make us all victims.

apart from a troll, no other desciption fits, most deniers here should ask them selves this.
Is global warming, [not carbon tax not man made] happening?
What are the implications?
If not man made why are country's like the European economic community taking action?
Why is China?
What are the implications of acting if we are wrong.
What are the implications of not acting.
One poster , please reconsider, ignores a FACT, higher and lower rain fall, was first put forward in the year 1998 as a symptom of global warming.

Runner,
The author never even mentioned the Scriptures, let alone professed to "hate" them.

That's the problem with religious zealots - they see everything in total black or white. Everything is either right or completely wrong with nothing in between and with a sense of paranoia thrown in.

Science in never "settled" but adapts to accommodate changing data. Conclusions based on data can be valid until they are totally disproven.

To base a scientific opinion on unrelated text is like saying that the climate was different in the past because, according to one particular story, beanstalks were once known to reach into the clouds

'Runner,

And yet the author wrote yesterday on another thread
'Runner, you know dam well the religious fraternity has the money-tree influence just like any big business and that's why our beloved leader has to play the truth down.'

So I suggest checking your facts Wobbles before opening yor trap and making accusations
