The earth has been through many heating and cooling cycles that were not
caused by humans. We know that we are now producing too much carbon dioxide
so there is a human cause component. What really has scientists concerned
now is the rate of temperature change which appears to be unprecedented. I
thought Gore's presentation addressed that quite well. It will take time to
reduce the production of carbon dioxide and we need to start now. /jmac

Yes, it's definitely controversial. And definitely crap IMO. I'm old enough
to remember when they were prophesying (1970's) we had to "act now" because
all the pollution we were producing was blocking the sun and dangerously
cooling the earth. Then there was the prophecies of "population explosion"
that would leave us without standing room on earth by about the year 2000.
Of course Al Gore will never have to answer for his ridiculous predictions
either, as he knows he'll be long gone by then, meanwhile laughing all the
way to the bank.
