Just getting a taste of the opinion here. Who relates being "green" talk to the "global warming" talk?

I recycle, I do think global warming is a crock of shit. Check the articles I posted in the political forum.

You can be green and recycle conserve resources. With out having to believe in global warming. IMO

Being green is an individual thing. I recycle and have replaced my light bulbs although also looking to do more on my part. Global warming is another subject.

Hasn't the temperature dropped more every year since Al put out his movie telling us it was going to get warmer until we all died?

Despite thinking the global warming hysteria issue is similiar to the global cooling in the 70's-y2k panic and others--
I am for doing what ever reasonable to limit polution and be environmental friendly--shouldn't have to be a trumpted up phobia to have folks get together on that issue.

As far as the phobia--believe its just about ran its course--as much of it's -(could be-might be--probably is ) theories are getting axed on credibilty.
They jump on hurricane effect after Katrina-but grossly wrong-- as very mild hurricane seasons.

Will be curious what they have to say on temps after this year-- :)

Personally am firm believer in adage--"as unpredictable as the weather"

"Over the past year, anecdotal evidence for a cooling planet has exploded. China has its coldest winter in 100 years. Baghdad sees its first snow in all recorded history. North America has the most snowcover in 50 years, with places like Wisconsin the highest since record-keeping began. Record levels of Antarctic sea ice, record cold in Minnesota, Texas, Florida, Mexico, Australia, Iran, Greece, South Africa, Greenland, Argentina, Chile -- the list goes on and on. "

If you don't believe in global warming you probably still want to have clean air to breathe. A lot of cities in the US have dirty air and we need to do something about that. Also think conserving and protecting large areas of the US is a good idea for future generations. Recycling is necessary because we will run out of garbage dumps at some point. No one should argue about most of these things. I think Bush's problem is that he did nothing and actually probably made things worse on several of these metrics. The guy had no vision.

I agree with you on all points Roger--

I just don't like the Gore clan trying to exploit us with- (could be-may be-is probably-- science) to the tune of trillions on economy and millions in their pockets.
Just the opposite has occurred since their dire predictions from hurricanes to temps-
