They are now exploring legal ways of linking human rights and climate change to put pressure on nations such as the US to cut greenhouse gas emissions

Shrug. Regardless of if global warming is real or not, I still do not think we should be spewing pollution into the air if we don't need to.

Any movement to cut it down is a good one, IMO.

Canada,North America and So.America are C02 sinks..go knock on China's door since the're the world underground coal fire C02 emitter..don't forget HongKong and all of southeast Asia which have nearly no emission control on motor vehicles and smokestack industry..

the eruption of one mid-sized volcano would put as much CO2 in the atmosphere as we have in the past decade.

so please forgive me if i don't believe that humans are SOOoo important as to be able to actually destroy the resilient system for life that is the earth.

even nuclear war would leave life to spring-anew on earth.

Other planets in the solar system are experiencing planetary warming as well, due to solar activity. I suppose the fact that planets as far out as Neptune are warming up is somehow our fault as well. I am not saying we are not experiencing global warming, but I AM saying I doubt we are the primary, or even the secondary cause.
