The thing is climatologists base statements from years of analytic research and empirical data, while the naysayers with no extensive studies of their own attack these findings and the scientists due simply to their economically based belief and feel threatened as any animal would if backed into a corner.

With the obvious polar ice pak and glacial melting, Indian and Pacific ocean island's coastlines submerging, worldwide erratic weather and higher oceanic acidic concentrations due to displaced CO2, debating warming trends has become a mute issue.

Just as this article suggests, if responses come too late, many negative changes will occur such as the Asian rivers drying up that are fed by Himalayan ever shrinking glaciation.

The poor Nepalese contribute less than .05% to total greenhouse emissions and yet are the first to experience the consequences...

The Global Warming is caused by the greenhouse gas effect, mostly of them is CO2. If we don't used the refereed "Green Energy's" of the sun, of the wind, of the hydraulic power, the geothermic energy, the biomass energy, and etc., the increase of CO2 the glacial melting will be worst and the lever of the seas water will submerge the lands.

About time they got out of the boardroom and got down to grass roots level.. only in that way will they be able to see the true picture
