I am really concerned about the nuclear plant and the leaks they have since the 6.8 earthquake yesterday. I know this is a VERY serious issue but how far away could an explosion affect other countries? I ask this because Japan has a bad track record with these nuclear power plants. What are the effects on the sea life too? Nuclear water has leaked into the ocean too. Also this morning, CNN announced that there was barrels found open and empty. Serious answers please.

Wouldn't the global warming people have a stronger argument if they predicted the climate temps 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, 5 years and 10 years from now? Instead of just saying it's warming, trust us?

If they know the cause, if they know the quantity of co2, if they so trust the computer models, then prediction should be easy, and accurate.

I doubt any "global warming" believer would actually come out and make a prediction like this. I know they can't do it. There is no science that can predict the future, and they will look just as foolish as the people who have told us that global warming will cause more and more intense hurricanes.

Someone told me hybrid cars are just as bad as the regular ones driving on highways because although they are more energy efficient, it takes more energy to actually make them. Is this true or false?

I had my hopes up for buying a toyota hybrid because it was environmentally friendly and comes with tax relief. Should I still?

We all know that the earth goes through cycles of temperatures of about 32 degrees from its highest point to its lowest, plus humans arn't the main cause of CO2, so is it just a great fundraising tool then, or what?? And where does Al Gore fit in to all this???

In the graph here

http://www.seed.slb.com/en/scictr/watch/climate_change/images/carbonDioxideLevels.jpg

you can see that carbon dioxide would go up and down even without humans (though humans make it worse).

My question: why did carbon dioxide go up naturally in the past, and why are the rises so much steeper than the falls??

Any link which gives some precise theories, or your theory much appreciated...

He says that ordinary people need to change the way that they live, but ordinary people don't drive 100,000 dollar cars and they don't take private jets all over the world eather. So does anyone else say that this dude is crazy?

Even if most Americans don't believe in Global Warming, shouldn't we still try to decrease our CO2 emissions? The average American generates 15,000 pounds of CO2! Kind of gross when you think about it.
