I think you are missing the point.... the real question is; are we responsible for global warming? I thinks the so called facts here are disputable. Undoubebly there will be global warming.... Are we responsible for it? not sure.
And of course we'll have another ice age anyway ... once the natural cycle of warming is over ...
There's another lot of doom-mongers who say a big volcano going off like St Helena and Krakatoa undoes decades of carbon saving in one bash.
And there's yet another lot of doom-mongers who reckon we're well into the second half of the world's oil and gas reserves, so it won't be a problem for ever.
Nuclear Weapons: No threat there, just ask the Japanese.
Aids: No threat???? Are you really THAT stupid
Global Warming: It is irrefutable now. You are a science air-head if you don't believe it. But maybe you should wait for the 10% of the human-race who are dislocated due to rising sea-levels to come round to your house before you believe.
The rain in Cumbria was an isolated weather incident, but global warming is real and rest assured that humans are causing it and that it is having profound effects on the ecosystem of this planet.

Given the doom-mongers' reports that Antarctica is losing ice the size of Wales every year, and the Arctic ice-sheet is only half as big as it was, why aren't sea-levels already rising and dislocating them?
Mr S. Air-Head

The Arctic ice is irrelevant to sea levels. If it all melted it would make no difference at all. (Of course Antarctica is a different story. That could make us very wet indeed.)
The article starts: "WHEN I was a postdoc, I was often short of money and used to earn a little extra cash by telling fortunes using a pack of 15th-century tarot cards....Then I discovered that the government would pay me a very large salary to create unfathomable statistical models of the climate as long as the output showed the world was warming. When the model showed no warming, the government was not interested in paying me to play with numbers anymore."
Great article here from a global warming doom-sayer.

Dear Sir,
