exactly. i dont know why so many can't seem to grasp this. both sides are so ignorant in their arguments... its like watching 3rd graders argue pontificate on the meaning of life. everyone is so sure that "kermit the frog" or "pokemon cards" are the answer.

i dont have strong opinions on this issue. of course i believe its something to be concerned about. but it has always seemed to me that in this argument, alarmists go so far in their hysteria that they detract attention away from meaningful and useful discussion and debate.

i think we should care about the environment. i think we should do what we can to reduce our footprint on the planet. but you just can't reach people on a wide scale with scare tactics, rhetoric and easily disputed arguments.

the fact that these things are debated to the extent they are, to me... is only piece of conclusive evidence in the whole discussion - that not enough is even understood to draw scientifically sound conclusions.
