I don't give a squat about Al. I also know that the temperatures we
are currently seeing are not historical highs if you look back before
the "mini ice age" that started around 1200. However, there's a
difference this time in that man does appear to be causing the issue.
Who knows how the Earth can deal with that. In addition, man has a lot
more investments that will be devastated by the impending rise in sea
levels.
Regardless of the cause, it's a problem. Whether it's warming or
cooling, dramatic climatic changes have and will continue to cause
serious issues. If we can counter or at least temper man's effects
that would be a good thing.
