The Australians aren't, and haven't bought into the political BS that us Americans have. They are in their own league and a correct one for that matter. We all need to stop buying into global warming and human caused Climate change.

Specifically 15:00 through 35:00..... We've been getting lied to for years and years...

It has been know for years that this is a big money business and instead of telling the truth that isn't making money they lie so people like Al Gore make millions.

CO2 is one of the greenhouse gasses that keeps our planet warm enough for us to live on.

It shouldn't be surprising that increasing CO2 would increase the average temperature.

Indeed, CO2 and temperatures are both going up and have been for decades.

Why do people think this is some kind of conspiracy?

We may not be able to do much about the problem. Indeed, we do not yet have an economical replacement for fossil fuels (that's the other inconvenient truth).

Yes, Al Gore is a self-serving opportunist. But that doesn't mean the science is wrong.

Anti global warming is a religious cult without any foundation in reality. I just ignore them as should any thoughtful person.


FWIW - Al Gore is indeed an opportunistic politician. Don't all of you believe in the Business Axiom of taking advantage of an opportunity. Isn't that what you think you all are doing?

I think global warming is happening, but I'm not sure if the planet will become Venus because of it.

Most of the political approaches to fixing it are not even band aids to fix it..the Paris agreements basically would mean US taxpayers pay a tax to try force decreased emissions, while India and China only need to slow their RATE of increase, not reduce emissions. Not sure how that is going to save the planet.

We have too many people for modern life. Population control is the answer to most of our issues, but that goes against the tenants capitalism never mind most religions.

Yall bunch of 'the science', 'the science','the science', 'the science', 'the science' soothsayers crack me up !!

You simply don't have a clue.

The 'too much co2 from humans' bs yall trumpet ain't gonna 'burn up the earth' any more than when ages ago TENS of THOUSANDS of times MORE Co2 was released from volcanoes did. God calls it fertilizer - and he used it to green up the globe!

All that's gonna happen from HUMANS burning more and more OIL and COAL is MORE FOILAGE!
Wait - thats a good thing. MORE GREEN. MORE FOOD.

Sheesh.
