By legitimate research scientists?

Ever?

Glad I can count on a random blog to correct my ways.

No one's claiming that. Simply that Al Gore has greatly exaggerated the legitimate scientific research. And that there is still a great deal of debate amongst legitimate research scientists as to the actual scope and causes/cyclical nature of "global warming".

Ollie, what is your "indisputable proof"?

Other than a bad documentary?

Don't have any, didn't ask for any.

Not unlike other hot button issues discussed on here, I am dissapointed by some people unwillingness to even recognize the other side, gawd fobid there is actual recognition of even a portion of the whole.

black or white. up or down. right or left.

pick one.

now.

sorry, you're wrong.

I will pass on that and choose the lovely variety of grey.

I think you think I'm being black and white, but we're really just different shades of grey...

Also, are we so sure we're going to run out of oil? It is fossil fuel, right? Aren't organisms constantly dying and decaying? Who's to say the fossil fuels won't replenish themselves over time? What about speeding up the process artificially? Don't embalm me, put me in a box or cremate me when I'm gone. Bury me and eventually I'll contribute a couple of quarts of oil to heat somebody's home or fuel somebody's car. If you've got a way to speed up the process, go for it. What do I care, I'll be gone anyway.

Soylent gas?

and isn't that basically what bio-fuel is doing?

Anyway, I agree this bio-fuel idea is a complete waste of resources and the environment. It's basically a big sham. We should be running our vehicles on water by now, anyway.

Who's the one being arrogant here? Maybe the Muslims or the Hindus are right - perhaps you should convert and save yourself.

It is!

It's actually making things worse.

...and an even exponentially larger track record of government programs thought to solve problems and then having many unintended not so good consequences.
