If you don't think global warming is a bogus issue,
you have a lot to worry about. Rapidly melting
polar ice caps make Osama Bin Laden look
like a pain-in-the-ass ankle biter.

I think global warming IS a bogus issue. However I believe global
climatic change is real and it is smart to understand what part of it is
man caused, what we can do about it and at what cost and not go off and
spend a whole lot of money to do damn little when that money could
instead be used to provide clean water or plant trees or fix clean air
problems. I'm a big fan of the think local idea. I'm also a big fan of
Bjorn Lomborg mostly because he tries to show that there cost to all
this and we need to be smart and change what we can and learn to live
with what we can't change.
