Both sides have been politicized and the waters have been muddied to the point where it's easy not to know which side to trust. I don't have an answer for you. You just have to do your due diligence and research what's being published. >> YOU SAID IT. I really like that I've promoted good discussion on the topic, and as long as it stays friendly and objective, that's a GOOD THING. I came away from the documentary leaning towards its conclusions. I still think pollution is bad and recycling is good but when it comes to global warming.... there are lies, damn lies and statistics. Show me one person who says the greenhouse effect is man-made, and I'll show you someone who says it isn't. What's needed is healthy debate, and I think nobody'd argue that the documentary put across well the idea that "Global Warming" has become a religion and those who denounce it are treated as on the same level as holocaust deniers is pretty on the money, IMO. (perhaps not quite as extreme!) MY PREDICTION: If this documentary is to be believed, then within the next 20-50 years, average temperatures will either level off or start to fall. And as was pointed out in the documentary, by the time it does, we'll have forgotten all about those people who made those predictions... Keep discussions open, and keep an open mind. You've been reading sites debunking the documentary, and as Greg said, how about reading those sites debunking Al Gore's "truth"? How is one more "propaganda" than the other? Martin Yahoo!
