The world has been much warmer in the past and much cooler too. The grim truth of the warming lie is that global temperatures stalled 10 years ago. No warming and a new cooler trend is predicted. <strong>KittyCat:</strong>Hi John, care to substantiate your comment on predictions of a cooler trend? I'd be interested since there's already scientific consensus on global warming and its effects due to human actions. Bring on the good news any day!

Even with the world changing so quickly, there are still MANY disbelievers or "optimists" who either won't accept/deny facts. Hopefully, this will change before things take a turn for the worse. I'm not against development either, but it has to be sustainable! Quite a number of companies are going green, for a better bottomline and corporate social responsibility. More need to follow...nice to meet another greenie :) at the end of the day…. it’s mentality.
