>While I think the environment is one of the most important things to focus on, I am not convinced that global warming actually exists or that even if it does, it is not as severe a danger as media and some predict.


Yep, I think our number one problem is scientists! They are driving this feeding frenzy for government research dollars. Volcanoes dump tons of debris into the air, yet God cleans it. If you think about it, we are a lot more environment conscious than ever before. Places like Pittsburg and many northern manufacturing meccas no longer pump all that trash into the air. We are doing much better, yet the scientist(gimme money) keep beating the drum.
