The idea that mankind has some kind of ability to control the thermostat of the world is just ludicrous. There are so many factors controlling the temperature and a lot of them are poorly understood. Ask an astronaut what they can see from orbit Apart from the lights during night time it is next to impossible to see any . sign of human habitation on Earth.

The earth is much bigger than us! It is arrogance of the highest order to think that we could influence the climate with CO2 emissions. Our carbon-burning emissions are a fraction of what the earth emits naturally. CO, levels have been higher in the past when the planet was cooler, and they have been lower when the planet was warmer, how does that work?

If CO2 were such a dominant force in climate surely it could never be cool when there is an abundance of it in the atmosphere. This is just yet another disaster for people to ""solve"" so they can ""save"" something. I dont understand how some people just cannot live without an impending disaster in their lives. And in Australia, the ridiculousness of the argument is most apparent. The green movement opposes the building of nuclear power plants and dams. Nuclear and hydro are the two most efficient noncar-bon energy sources, yet the green warriors dont like them? Give me a break, this is total rubbish. Google ""climategate"" and see whats not being debated. Skeptics are forever being called ""de-niers"" and ""in the pay of big oil"".

But if you want to make money out of this I suggest you go for government grants, big oil is paying bugger all. Five hybrids and 1,200 limousines are in use at the Copenhagen conference. *Simon, Jakarta*

Nowadays, were being warned against this alleged global warming, which is to happen in a couple of centuries, based on studies from 60 years-back, while metereological forecasts for the next day are not even accurate.

Whats their point? The United Nations Population Fund wants to spread the so-called ""reproductive rights"" (contraception, sterilization and abortion) in order to reduce the worlds population for the sake of fighting global warming, for them the world is on the brink of climatic disaster.Says Peter C. Smith, from the International Right to Life Federation ""The real and imminent danger is the demographic reduction of the developed world, thaf s being stopped only by the inmigrant flow from the Third World"".

The UNs report praises the drop inn birth rate in Japan and Europe, and criticizes its rise in the United States. Obamas chief scientific advisor is John Holdren, a supporter of coercive measurements, who back in the 70s suggested forced abortions and sterilizations to reduce natality. *Eva N Ferraz Barcelona, Spain*
