"We were stunned by the similarities between the observations that have been recorded at sea worldwide and the models that climatologists made," said Tim Barnett of the University of California's Scripps Institution of Oceanography. "The debate is over, at least for rational people. And for those who insist that the uncertainties remain too great, their argument is no longer tenable. We've nailed it." [/i]

Nice! I have read this before.

The lack of recorded information on the timeline of the last warming and cooling cycle, and the one before that and so on, is the reason I question what we think we know.

A very short time ago, we knew…

The world to be flat, earth was the center of the universe, leaches where the best way to cure everything, man could never walk on the moon, it was impossible for a man to fly, there was no way to go faster then sound, no one would want a personal computer, there could never be a computer small enough to fit on a desk that would be of any use. And the of bending time and space to travel from point “A” to Point “B” across galaxies was outside the realm of possibility…

My point is…

Damned near every certainty that has been spewed forth, has been proven wrong.

LOL, I don’t believe there will any of us alive to find out whether we had an effect on the rate of warming or not.

You are right Cigar nobaka, the climate may be warming, but it is the human population is not causing it. The liberals are creating this mess. Wasn't the Director of Greenpeace who has been pushing this? Funny thing is he is an Engineer and not a scientist.
