Alarm over climate change not necessary.

What the professor is saying is that, yes, there is some global warming going on. In the next 100 years, maybe the earth will heat up another degree, maybe the oceans will rise another 1 inch (maybe 2 centimeters). No big deal and there's nothing to be done about it, anyway.

That is what I was infering about the professor red, he is like Bush when he said the deployment of us troups wouldn't be a lengthy one, trying to minimise the situation, Gore may well be over estimating the consequences, but hey, I would rather err on the side of caution in this instance. And to say nothing can be done, well one word...BLAHHH.... doing things little by little has achieved wonders in many areas over time and I believe this is one of those areas which can do with changing bad industrial habits!

This is a plausable point red, however if the whole in the blanket gets to big, the one human kind ripped in it with their big toe... it doesn't matter about the fibers in the blanket anymore! The protection is gone where the whole is! The bigger it gets the bigger the devastation! Unfortunately I can't resolve this aspect of the scenario. The merit of this view is difficult to explain away.

Certainly, the source must be considered. Some sources are more biased than others. Newsweek has been accused of bias by some people. That is why I don't take their word for things but evaluate the information. The information in this particular article is consistent with what else I've been able to learn from other sources. This information fits right in with the pattern of everything else. It is very believable to me. In short, it makes sense.

Certainly, we should not pollute the world. Cutting back CO2 emissions is a fine idea that should be implemented. However, that is not where people like myself disagree with Al Gore. Al Gore strongly implied and insinuated that WE WILL ALL DIE, and soon if we did not listen to his advice. Al Gore implied and insinuated that if we took his advice we would save the planet and reverse global warming. These things are false. Al Gore is a liar trying to create a panic. His motive is money. Al Gore is one of the founders of a company that deals in "carbon credits". "Carbon credits" are slowly starting to be seen as a sham and a con. Shame on Al Gore.

The facts are pretty much in agreement concerning global warming. It is going on. It is not severe in nature. What the arguement is about is the projection and prediction of where the data is going in the future. This certainly is open to disagreement and nobody really can prove what is going to happen in the future. This leaves plenty of opportunity for people who enjoy argueing to do so. That's what is going on.

Actually, I have read the IPCC report summary for international leaders twice. Most of what has been printed concerning that document, in my opinion, is reporter's misunderstandings of it. The IPCC report is very much in agreement with the MIT professor. Just concentrate on the data and facts of the report and ignore the rest. You are in for a surprise if you think this MIT professor and the IPCC are in actual disagreement.
