    BBC and the global warming threat
    How many BBC news articles have there been in the past five years on global warming that present it as a legitimate threat to the earth as opposed to the articles that present it as a hoax?

    Well why not try looking at the BBC site as you'll get a better understanding of what is involved.
    The site even has its own built in search engine.

    I don't know but I just saw this great film that I'm pretty sure was funded by the BBC called the Great Swindle. Thank God for the internet because that kind of stuff is not allowed in the United States.

    Well I don't think anyone has an issue that there is global warming ( even far right wing people like me) It is just an issue of who or what is the cause.

    And an issue of can anyone really do anything about it. Even if Europe and the US stop and go back to the horse and buggy days, that does not stop China, or Russia or Africa from still using what ever they want. And what it also does is make even worst the balance of trade, since those nations already make things cheaper than we do, with more restrictions it will go even worst.

    And there are many who believe this could well be just a act of nature, where the planet is changing on its own. Remember the ice age and the ice age going away, oceans where deserts are now and things like that.
    And that I believe I have read that the sun itself it getting hotter

    And of course it was many of the same sources that 20 years ago warned us all that global cooling was going to happen in the next 100 years causing a new ice age.

    So it is the cause of the problem that is the real issue, and one that even if it was determined most likely can not be fixed because of no central control of the entire earth political and economic system.

    Is the US going to ban any goods from China because they don't use pollution control?? We won't even ban goods because of human rights violation
