The post you are reporting:
I read that there have been 8 climate changes, where the Earth warms up and then cools down and we're currently in a warming-up one.
I don't think anyone denies that global warming is happening, but how much we can influence change - have influenced this warming, is the argument.
I know that millions of acres of trees in the vast rain-forests have been chopped down and these will have had an effect as trees breathe in carbon-monoxide and breathe out oxygen, so that won't help.
Fossilised fuels (oil/coal etc.) create gaps in the ozone-layer, we know that too, but we have only been using these in large quantities, for a couple of hundred years.
This is the first climate change (cooling or warming) where man has been able to measure it, to know about it even and we are (wrongly in my view) blaming it all on ourselves.
I certainly think that our Government, even many Governments, are using this as a tax to create income for themselves (as Governments, not individuals). I also believe that carrots work better than sticks for encouragement to do something.
