There are so many people falling for this that it is a bit scary and very disappointing. I can't imagine being so easily manipulated into actually sending money to some organization to purchase carbon credits. Believing that they will plant a tree with the money. Please lemmings, look into this subject a bit more. Ask yourself why Al Gore refuses to debate the subject with Dennis Avery. Why is JunkScience.com offering $100,000 to the first person to prove, in a scientific manner, that global warming is caused by humans.

All the Sheep that just follow blindly after each other swallowing this crap generated by the Government, the Media and other scaremongers who bleat on about Freak Weather, Floods, High Winds when if you stop and think these things happen every 10 - 11 years.
2007 Floods,
1997 ?
1987 Hurrican.
1976 Heatwave
1966 ?
1956 ?
1947 Snow for 3 months
I am a free thinker not a sheep.

I do not remember he past hundreds of thousands of years, nor do I think that the governments decide what the situation is.
The sun obviously has a huge influence on our weather, without which the Earth would have a temperature of -273 deg C. With it the Earth has an average Temp of -40 and the temperature contribution from greenhouse gases takes the average global temp above 0 and Voila - liquid water and life exist. It is relatively simple science to suggest that increases in CO2 and other greenhouse gases cause the temperature to go up, and since we are vastly increasing the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere and the temp will rise.
It is the scientists who have been knocking on government doors for years to get them to listen; they do not create graphs to support government schemes as you imply. Governments have finally started acting on this very urgent issue and now I think the rest of us should wake up and seriously limit our pollution burden on the planet.
Consider that the "extremely-clever" conditioning you refer to might actually be the truth - which, in the long run, is impossible to argue against.

I also agree that the planet has been warming up and down for Milena. Recycling is a good habit and it would be nice if we got paid for the weight we hand in. But that would be very disappointing for the government as it's all about generating more taxes. Think about it. People are giving up fags and this will loose the government loads of money. It's all political slapping taxes on wastage, I read that the local authorities are issuing smaller wheely bins. Dead fish in seas rotting sea weed cows farting all adds up and this is all part of the bio system.

If you are right then these people you right off as deluded or self serving propogandists, will be found out and denounced in time. BUT if you are wrong, and they ARE right, it is the end of the human race, so it is a bit of a big gamble you are taking with the lives of your own children or grandchildren, if you ever actually have any.
It is always easy to play dice when it is other peoples money you are losing, and, believe it or not, I really hope you are right because the alternative is just too horrible to contemplate!

Dennis C...Blah Blah Blah! clearly he hasn't saw the documentary about Global dimming...Yes Global dimming. because of all the carbon monoxide produced by us we are actually forming a blanket (if you like) across the skies causing less light to reach the earths suface.this in turn is reducing the temperature of the sun's rays, so if we were to stop using these fossil fuels now we would potentially remove the blanket of carbon monoxide which would have even more drastic effects of climate change. they only found this out after 9/11 because america stopped all flights and during this time the average temperature rose by 6 degrees centirade.

The only ones being deceived are people like you.
If the Sun were responsible for global warming, the entire globe would be getting warmer. But in fact the stratosphere is getting cooler as the surface is getting warmer. This is because an increased greenhouse effect traps more heat near the ground, letting less heat escape to the stratosphere.
Here's the data, going all the way back to 1958. Read it and weep.

I examine the item and few issues jumped out at me: a million. Dr. Ball's credentials look good. 2. Dr. Ball is peeved. In areas of the item he looked virtually petulant, "i'm an incredible scientist and no person is listening to me". (fold arms, pout, stamp foot, start to yell) 3.Dr. Ball does not deny that worldwide warming is happening, in basic terms that people are the reason. it is important. If people are not the reason then human activities that emit green properties gases e.g burning OIL are not a difficulty. 4. i contemplate whether Dr. Ball has hyperlinks to the oil marketplace, his comments in paragraph 10 look slightly protective. 5.i'm uncertain no count if the theory of the golf green abode consequence has been examined even though it rather is clever according to our know-how of the actual international (atmospheric chemistry, thermodynamics, kinetics and so on.). 6. The citation in paragraph 14 casts doubt on the theory that CO2 is a greenhouse gases, no longer on no count if there are such issues are green abode gases. 7.I examine Michael Crichton's "State of worry". He on no account denied that worldwide warming and climate replace are actual. Deny or retaining climate replace became no longer, for my section, what the e book became approximately. What he became attempting to warn us against, and rightly so, is what happens whilst politics and propaganda take over the technology. The conclusions grow to be skewed to fulfill some (regularly wealthy) guy or woman/team's intersts. it rather is a threat that now faces climate replace and the credibility of its examine. dissimilar huge effective human beings and firms are looking climate replace of their interest and all that furnish funds floating approximately would injury objectivity. climate replace desires skeptics and naysayers to maintain researchers on their feet, producing severe high quality examine. Dr. Ball, eminent scientist as he's, could be greater effective if his article did no longer look so petulant. The areas of the international warming theory that he warns against fit too properly into "huge Oil's" schedule for me to be completely comfortable with all he's saying.

Yes, true. We must realize that these "scientist" are making predictions all the time, more than Nostradamus himself. We never hear about the ones that they blow. It's only when they make a lucky guess that they come forward to brag about their ability to see in the crystal ball and crown themselves king.
Dr. Hansen was right for the wrong reasons when he guessed the climate in 1988, he was wrong last year when he predicted the "El Nino of the century".
No one can see into the future. It's just a guess, and guessing isn't science.

Well the vast majority of scientists:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_opinion_on_climate_change
http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/306/5702/1686
Most world leaders.
Conservative politicians and businessmen:
"Former Republican House Speaker Newt Gingrich challenged fellow conservatives to stop resisting scientific evidence of global warming"
"Pat Robertson (very conservative Christian leader) 'It is getting hotter and the ice caps are melting and there is a build up of carbon dioxide in the air. We really need to do something on fossil fuels.”
Ford Motor Company CEO William Clay Ford, Jr. "I believe there is now more than enough evidence of climate change to warrant an immediate and comprehensive - but considered - response. Anyone who disagrees is, in my view, still in denial."
"The science of global warming is clear. We know enough to act now. We must act now."
James Rogers, CEO of Charlotte-based Duke Energy.
"Global warming is real, now, and it must be addressed."
Lee Scott, CEO, Wal-Mart Company
and the majority of people in the world:

Either this is by far the most successful conspiracy in history, or you're wrong. Not a hard choice for me. Especially given the abundant scientific proof of mostly man made global warming. Two examples:
