holy shit... most uninformed and ignorant comment of the year. First off, to even say that the environmental groups are paying off the media is so far from the truth that it's laughable. Environmental groups have no money, and what little they do is going to make a difference. However, the huge industries all have hundreds of lobbyists, and provide ludicrous amounts of money to fund one sided studies that are absolute jokes. State of Fear is the biggest piece of shit ever, it's one writer that decided that he was more intelligent than the vast majority of the best climate scientists in the world (who have devoted their lives to studying these things.) Chrichton then simply quoted and drew arguements from the bullshit studies paid for by big industry.
Have some idea of what you are talking about before you open your mouth.
Finally, I believe that while global warming is a serious problem, it is not as big as our energy crisis. Most estimates say that demand will greatly exceed supply within the next twenty years, causing a huge energy and economic crash. If we work on finding alternate forms of energy before it's too late, then most of this can be prevented, and this progress will go hand in hand with reduced greenhouse emissions. Of course, unless we stabilize the rampant population growth soon, none of this will matter.
