How can you slow what's already stopped?
How can you enact legislation to try and slow Global Warming at risk of pushing the already teetering economy off the cliff of despair when it has already stopped?
If you look closely at Al Gore's little chart, you can see that the warming comes slightly before the CO2 rise. Warming causes an increase in CO2. This is why the earth hasn't burst into flames yet, even though CO2 levels are far higher than they've ever been. Furthermore, Russian scientists have started to say that Global Warming is over, and that we are now entering a period of Global Cooling. But wait, weren't we just in Global Cooling back in the 70s? Oops...
It's all a hoax to try to scare people into trying to protect the enviornment. Should we protect the enviornment? Yes. Should we tell stories to terrify people into doing it? No.
