even farmers without water for 7 years in Australia think its a cycle.

Public opinions differ from one nation to another, with a majority seeing anthropogenic warming as a threat in most societies. More important, probably, is that following the unanimity within the science literature, nations at the leadership level are now unanimously committed to reduction of CO2 emissions to avert the worst consequences of unabated warming. As a result, remediation options, and not the reality of the warming, will be the focus of most future debates affecting policy.

i guess eveyone sees it as a pig in the poke.

sensible chaps, AUSTRALIANS are getting bored with climate change, and many still doubt whether it is actually happening, a new survey has revealed. Only 46 per cent of Australians said they would take action on climate change if they were in charge of making decisions for Australia, a dip from 55 per cent last year, according to the Ipsos-Eureka Social Research Institute's third annual climate change survey.

"Milloy has spent much of his life as a lobbyist for major corporations and trade organizations which have poisoning or polluting problems. He originally ran NEPI, which was founded by Republican Rep. Don Ritter (who tried to get tobacco industry funding) using oil and gas industry funding. NEPI was dedicated to transforming both the EPA and the FDA, and challenging the cost of Superfund toxic cleanups by these large corporations." sourcewatch. org/index.php?title=Steve_Milloy

Demand Debate is a project of Steven Milloy, who is "a columnist for Fox News and a paid advocate for Phillip Morris, ExxonMobil and other corporations. From the 1990s until the end of 2005, he was an adjunct scholar at the libertarian think tank the Cato Institute." "Milloy is dedicated to debunking what he alleges to be false claims regarding global warming, DDT, environmental radicalism and 'scare science' among other topics." He also attacks the corporate social responsibility movement.

global warming dont exist idiot! so what happen in the 1970s global cooling how it just change all of a sudden! and no were in any of these reports does it talk about "global cooling" liberal brainwashed emotional fools!!!!

The notion that anthropogenic warming is a subject of disagreement is an Internet myth in the sense that it's unanimously acknowledged in the science literature, with near unanimity in perceiving it to be a potentially severe threat. Anyone interested in drawing his/her own conclusions rather than refereeing YouTube squabbles should simply review the recent literature - in GRL, JGR, Nat. Geosci., J. Climate, Int. J. Clim., Science, PNAS, or any other journal publishing climate data to judge.

Who's this k128kevin? 2 personal attacks, NIL contribution! Loved the ASC spoof :-D Dave.

dammit lets just have it again guys, The most important thing to understand about global warming is that there is a lot of disagreement in the scientific community about whats going on. An international survey of climate scientists conducted in 2003 by German environmental scientists Dennis Bray and Hans von Storch found: most scientists dont believe scientific knowledge is sufficient to predict future climate; most dont believe computer models accurately verify climate conditions;
