Although I think the climate probably is changing, I can't see that being a massive effect in just a few years.
But I can imagine pollution being a major issue - it already is on some places.

What a load of old codswallop.
I swear in 500 years time the inhabitants of Earth will be looking at this current bunch of scared pathetic little humans in their history lessons and laughing their collective arses off at how we thought ourselves so clever as to be able to manipulate the building blocks of life, but allowed ourselves to be manipulated by the corporations and governments into coughing up even more money to perpetuate this eco-fraud that we are currently being subjected to.
Not a popular opinion I agree. But I've still yet to see a single shred of categorical evidence that climate change is due to the effects of mankinds activities and not just another of the many natural shifts in the Earths climate that I think have more than likely affected our planet over it's 4 billion year history. But hey, forget good science - it's simply not profitable is ut?
I can see the argument for renewable energy. What I can't see though is the argument for GM crops to feed the rapidly expanding population, as a cull of all the chavs round my way would be a good start and could if successful lead eventually to a global cull of all chavs - a project I would be more than happy to lead BTW.
As Sir Bill of Hicks so eloquently put it "it's not like we'd lose a cure for cancer."
Flame away...

Yup.
The Aztec/Inca/some southern Amerindian calendar only went as far as 2012.
Now we know why...
