Is answered all in this one graph. see the measurable content above 350? That's where the real fun begins. The projections look downright awful, and they tshould. Fossil fuel use is a race to the bottom, a net loss for everyone, including the one planet we all live on but record profits for oil companies. They have us all hooked like junkies. Maybe some of their record profits/tax breaks could have gone into alternative energy. I hope the next generation is smarter than these last few, or we are really screwed.
If the "experts" came up with a viable plan to stop the destruction of 5 million acres of rain forest per year, I might start taking them seriously.
A credible spokesman would help too - that twit Al do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do Gore is about as believable as Daffy Duck.
Obama? Sure, global warming will destroy the planet. But first things first - it's far more important to create a health care reform boondoggle with my name on it. If there isn't any money left over for global warming you can blame Bush for that.
Oh, and maybe if the "experts" stop flying to the global warming conferences in private jets people would take them a little more seriously.
As it is, we in the US can sacrifice every penny of our wealth to reduce "greenhouse gas emissions" to zero and it won't make a damn bit of difference in the long run.

Who are these experts flying to conferences in private jets... I really doubt very many climate scientists (or any scientists) fly around in private jets. I know a professor who does study climate change and he had a meeting done via teleconference that would most likely in other sciences be done by everyone flying to one spot and meeting. The reason was to "lower their global warming impact".

100% of global warming is due to the fact that every day you get older. There is a 100% correlation between the twol. Ergo, you must do the "honorable thing" so global warming will cease. We will commemorate your "passing".

Of course this is just MSNBC so hardly very trustworthy...
Oh, those aren't experts; those are politicians.
World leaders often don't use commercial flights for security reasons.
