Why is this warming regarded as a permanent state forever? Were periods of warming and ice-ages (detailed in the geo record) in previous centuries and millenia due to human activity? What if, after removing all co2 emissions, and thus plunging many nations into more extreme poverty or deprivation, it is shown climate change is due to the sun's activity after all?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7612793.post-1166964742562589502006-12-24T12:52:00.000+00:002006-12-24T12:52:00.000+00:00This site is full of petroleum propaganda rubbish....This site is full of petroleum propaganda rubbish.

The House of Lords got hijacked; this one has got the science right, but who knows about the economics?<BR/><BR/>Duplication: fair point. For the science, thats what the IPCC is for. I don't think there is a corresponding body for econ (WG II & III head in that direction but not so far). Perhaps its just too controversial.William M.
