NOAA in Boulder gives free tours every Thursday at 1:00. They have a 3D model of the earth, with HISTORICAL data on Weather Temps - NOT PROJECTIONS. You should go see this!
Been there and done, and I still sold on a long term vs. short term view.
For the sky falling crowd, IMHO it is more likely that our planet will get hit by a meteor and life as we know will be dramatically change than for human influenced global warming to dramatically change our lives. Even with this view, I still believe we should work to reduce CO2 and other pollutants.
It is an interesting game we are playing. The Left says based on only decades of data, the Earth will be unable to ever cool down unless we radically change the lives of billions of people.
Conversly, how many decades of data will it take the deniers to jump on board, and will it be too late?
Personally I think there is nothing I can do to change global warming and remained unconvinced it is all bad, just different and man will be able to adapt to it.
