Gindy,
Respectfully almost all resonable science and scientists studying this issue have concluded the same thing (Mr. Crichton, one of my favorite FICTION writers, does not count). I get a feeling no real amount of study (for there is TON) or natural organic experience (also a TON, much of it highlighted on this website) will make the administration and some of its sycophants believe this issue is real and the largest threat facing human kind and our fellow species today.

Models are useless in this arena- for something like 8 billion people producing carbon and other particulate matter has never happened in history.

Listen to your own heart and mind in regards to this issue. You are but a part of the earth and will be again as we all will- there is a connection there if you allow it. It will guide you.

Many will, as you seem to do here, just claim there is evidence both ways (it has been the same story since the 70s). Such an easy, lazy stance and it will always be true. What does the reality tell you though? It tells me that the status quo is not sustainable either in the short or long term. The status quo as far as human actions has never been altered to test theories or work through unknowns-- maybe we could start here.

Petrified trees burning in each of our major cities each and every day is not sustainable.
