It is quite interesting to note that no-one has actually addressed the issue of Jo's website, i.e. the proof that what we do has anything to do with Earth's climate.
She points out that everything else discussed and argued about is superfluous. Where is the PROOF that we are altering the climate? As far as can be seen, we (as a race) are rushing into a million eco-motivated taxes and costs to us all without any tangible proof that the effect (such that there might be) is our fault. Where is the computer model that predicted a ten-year reversal in warming?
There is a very strong argument that this money could be better-spent elsewhere (cancer, malaria, clean drinking water anyone) where we KNOW people are dying now.
So, I would very much appreciate it if a pro-AGW volunteer could tell me/us why we must listen to them. The cry "we might be right, and the consequences of doing nothing will be catastrophic" DOES NOT count. as the website tells us, it is up to the AGW believers to prove their case, not us to disprove it.
Another of my favourite question to AGW believers is "Just what temperature should the earth be then?" I can (I hope) safely assume that everyone accepts that the Earth has been both much colder and much warmer than it is today (long before the advent of the Industrial Revolution) So, who made the present incumbents of Earth the ones to decide that right now, today, it is at just the right temperature? Or is it too warm/cold now? Seriously, pro AGW guys, give me an answer to that.
