I like to believe that we're not all doomed. It is conceivable that we are entering a natural cycle. Whatever, I err on the cautious side and you won't find too many people who are as frugal with the earth's resources as I am (and have been since the 70s). I switch off light all over the place, leave no unnecessary transformers on, giving off heat for no gain (and we get more and more of them today: PC screens, strings of lights, phone chargers, kids' games, etc., etc.), take all appliances off stand-by, use the car the minimum I can, keep the heating down - have it off when no one's in the house, recycle, consume no trees (esp. as newspapaers), deplore use of aluminium and steel cans, bacofoil, etc., and many other ways. I do all I can to combat global warming, whether it's true or not.

Now you said you've started this year agreeing with me. We've talked on the UT before about how exponents of GW get funding, opponents get vilified, as is the case for all popular scientific theories, and I don't want to get into it again now. It's a vast, nebulous subject. Even Lovelock has stated that we're all rubber-ducked and the only feasible way out is nuclear energy so what I do is spitting into the ocean, when others don't follow suit.

In short, al;though I think "The Good Lord" will provide I do my best to help Him out.

When polar bears become an endangered species due to the MEASURED and PROGRESSIVE melting of the polar ice cap, it's time to stop denying. Climactic blip, hell. We are doing this to our own planet for no better reason than quarterly profits.
