Go Bears!- sideshowRAHEEM, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Why do people get so insistent that there is no global warming caused by humans, your right the planet we live on goes through many climate changes that started even before humans where around, but you can not deny that humans have at least accelerated these changes by the toxins we pump into our atmosphere, and even if humans have no effect on global warning that doesn't mean its not a problem we have to deal with.

Another point:
Buying certificates and planting trees do not stop the emissions that are going into the atmosphere. You can't take that pollution back.

You're right... it's not man made. But man contributes to it. There is a problem, be it primarily from man or nature. Nature doesn't seem to be fixing itself, so I guess it's up to man.
