The truly scientific (objective) view shows that the world is warming, but it has (in context) several times during its history and will eventually get colder and then get warmer again without human intervention. There are cycles, and variables (sun, volcanoes, methane release from the ocean) that cannot be manipulated by man. Now, I agree that we should start investing in alternative energy sources beyond fossil fuel for the simple fact that it will run out in the near future (20-50 years?). Is the hysteria warranted? Possibly the effects on your environment, yes, but not the cause. The human race cannot easily be attrubited for it, but we should be concerned with the consequences of a warming climate. Yes indeed.
