I find it incredible that this debate still rages on.

Forget global warming, it's sideshow and a distraction. We need to find alternate fuel/energy sources other than the carbon based ones we use now.

Fact, they will run out and soon.
Fact, there will be energy wars when it does, unless we have an alternative up and running. We saw the start of the energy wars with the invastion of Iraq.
Fact, if we dont fine an alternative we will kill ourselves much quicker than the earth will.
Fact, we dont need to worry about the climate. The climate will look after itself, it's us we need to look out for. Even if we bugger the climate to the point that it can no longer sustain us, we simply die out. The earth will rebound over a couple of million years and the life cycle will start all over again, with out us. It's done this many many times before.

we can argue and argue and argue, but it's pointless. We have far more to loose if we are correct about the human impact, and everything to gain if are wrong. It's a win win for us if we stop polouting the earth.
