Actually, last year quite a few evangelical leaders, fortune 500 executives and oil company men signed a GW initiative. Oil puppet Bush is losing his support base on this and he followed suit in his State of the Union Message last week, saying it was time to address climate change.
I'm surprised to see as many as 3 people here still spouting the GW denial nonsense. On the one side we have the entire active peer-reviewed publishing scientific community, IPCC, NASA, NCDC, NOAA, EPA, CEC, UCS, and on and on. And on the other side we have ... ummm .... what was that ... oh yeah, a handful of non-publishing scientists most of whom receive oil money.
"In 1997, the UCS circulated a petition entitled "A Call to Action". The petition called for the ratification of the Kyoto Protocol. The petition was signed by 110 Nobel Prize laureates, including 104 Nobel Prize-winning scientists." -- Wikipedia
This was back in 1997. Now, in the words of Dr. Robert Correll, "The science is unassailable."
I'm putting my money on the Nobel Prize winning scientists. Which side would YOU put your bet on?

The use of nuclear blasts to create global cooling has been proposed as a very last ditch effort to regulate global climate by some controversial scientists. This would be in the event that global climate really is a problem and it gets completely out of control.
Global warming is a natural cycle. Accelerated global climate change is not a natural cycle. The full extent of the negative effects won't be known until they happen.

All those who posted here doubting the effects of global warming or global climate change or whatever you would like to call it are uneducated i.d.i.o.t.s. No one is denying that the earth heats up, then cools down in cycles. The problem today is that the warming is ACCELERATED and therefore is not following a natural cycle. That explains why there has been a sudden increase in hurricanes, storms and a total lack of ice or snow, particularly in Europe. The Greenhouse effect is scientific knowledge; it isn't made up out of thin air. I suggest that the morons who live amongst us and who deny something so self-evident, get educated; you should start with your ABCs...

Yeah, if he gets too cold with a nuclear winter, he can always move over to Iraq. I'm sure it's a lovely temperature this time of year.

it ought to...yet on account that we do not have something to flow on yet smoothed out computerized speculative curves to inform us how a lot airborne dirt and mud we ought to explode now, and renew again and again, it should be puzzling to steer away from tipping us again into yet another ninety,000 years of deeply chilly ice. And there should be some radioactive pollution in touch, that could worsen some conservative peoples. All international Warming classes shown in historic past very last a lengthy time period, and then are accompanied via quick temperature decline to truly chilly glacial situations for an extremely very lengthy time period. and that i have not considered the computer software yet that could take the international situations in say 500AD or 1000BC and are available up with the MEP and the LIA!! in the journey that they could't tournament universal historic information, how can we believe them to ideas-blowing predict the unknown destiny? needs slightly better artwork, methinks. and far better effective information inputs, not ordinarily from hotspots. a better effective idea i imagine is to load a gaggle of previous surplus ICBMs and positioned on better boosters like the commute, and then launch a heavily calculated volume of production facility airborne dirt and mud, undesirable pollution, radioactive dusts and debris, etc., and launch all of it right into a dirt band around the Earth's equator, per chance 10,000 miles up so it continues to be up a lengthy time period. Calculate it to in hardship-free words reduce the daylight's radiation via the quantity of the international Warming calculations...and in the journey that they are incorrect we may be able to launch better clouds of airborne dirt and mud if needed, or launch a huge piece of sticky paper to brush up the too-a lot airborne dirt and mud, or a real nuclear bomb to fuse and blast a hollow contained in the airborne dirt and mud and enable the nice and cozy temperature by skill of, and that way save the elements optimal for each and each man or woman (and maximum married ones) on the globe suddenly. And usefully do away with quite a number of guns to make the international far safer for Consensusy!

I think he isn't worried about global warming because global warming is most likely just normal climate change. Everyone seems to have forgotten that we had and ice age and a mini ice age and the earth has been getting warmer and warmer since the end of the mini ice age and that ended long before SUVs, let alone cars came along. I am sorry folks, global warming and cooling is just the natural state of things.

Another stupid question about something that doesn't exist. I shall answer it anyway...
President Bush is not worried about global warming because it doesn't exist. It is a baseless scare dreamed up by environmentalist wackos who want the US to return to the economy we had in 1830. The US is the engine behind the world economy. There are some boneheads who think that we are too big for our britches and they want to cut us down to size. That is an idiotic idea because without the power that is the US economy, the world economy is nowhere. Who can replace us-- France? Get real! Forget this socialist crapola and live your life. If you are fortunate enough to live in America then rejoice, be thankful to God for putting you here and be glad you don't live anywhere else. Period.
