Okay, maybe its not that simple, but reading this Article in the Times magazine today, i was quite shocked by out of control the Fears of Global warming have become. I won't get in depth to it right away, but this does seem in all fairness, to be nothing more than rampant scare-mongering of the highest order, and it's in one of the moost respected newspapers in the world:

Here is the link to the article: Its quite long but its worth reading.
to the ends of the earth

attention seeking Oxforg Grads >{
heres a sample:
"Dante's hell was a place of judgment, where humanity was for ever punished for its sins. With all the remaining forests burning, and the corpses of people, livestock and wildlife piling up in every continent, the six-degree world would be a harsh penalty indeed for the mundane crime of burning fossil energy."

That article could actually be believable since it's so long.

Well the recent UN report on global warming actually stated that Northern Europe will benefit from it, summers get longer and crops and tourism will increase. Global warming is very true, and will increase extreme weather conditions such as tornados, but end of the world in 50 years is bs.

No, The world as we know it will end in 2012 according to the Mayan Prophecies as we are ushered into a new era.
