I am curious to discover what the majority of posters believe - the popular consensus on global warming / climate change.

Thanks for participating in this anonymous poll! :wave:

To me the issue is not one of is, or is not climate change happening. Tather it seems to me that the issue is do or do we not want to know. I cannot see how one would refuse to open their mind to the possibility of change. Life is a constant process of change until you die. Why would anyone refuse to accept even the possibility of change. I don't know whether it is or is not but I know I expect my government to FIND OUT rather than spend their time refusing that change is possible and insisting that they "have the whole world in their hands" and the climate will do what they tell it to do. I can list thousands of changes that while once said to be impossible, have occurred....airplanes, space exporation, anyone remember the moon flu scare when man first made it to the moon, telphones...and on and on. There is a reason George W. Bush gets to reap the benefits of Presidental service...That is because he is SUPPOSED to look out for the public...not spend his time, under his desk or in private pryer meetings, only to emerge to tell people not to worry, he's got it under control

Your poll doesn't cover my answer.

I believe that the earth's climate changes naturally. I'm not so niave as to believe that humans have no impact on it, but I don't think we are as powerful as nature's ability to whip itself back into shape with or without us.

I've said it many times: I have absolutely no faith in Mr. Gore's doomsday predictions on global warming when 1) his carbon footprint is big enough for most large families to live on for a century and 2) I can't find a meteorologist who can accurately predict tomorrow's weather, let alone the weather 50 or a hundred years from now.
