I started this thread because I 'saw the movie' (It's simply the lecture that Al Gore gives put to film - it is a movie only in the broadest sense) that used what have been described as scare tactics, now after ustwo has kindly (if a little patronisingly) given me other sources of data countering what I saw - I'm still as confused as to what to beleive as before.

If I believe the sources Ustwo pointed out, we're fine - global warming predictions are fear mongering ill concieved half truths to scare us into what - recycling stuff and lowering the amount of pollutants we spill into the atmosphere? I'm not sure of the motives of creating a hoax such as global warming, who benefits financially from it?

However there seems to be a fair enough argument from the other camp but I'm not about to devote my live to understanding the science behind them (that's why we have scientists surely, i'll do my bit for the species they do theirs) so I guess I should either just wait till the Gulf stream switches off or recycle and do my bit to help the planet in whatever half assed, ill informed way I can
