The same people who believe in global warming also, for the most part, believe that we're soon going to run out of fossil fuels. So, even if it's true, it's only a temporary problem, right?

Even such noted climate scientists as James Hansen believe that technology and the economics of energy will go a long way toward determing the future climate trajectory. But I think that the time has come to accelerate things that might help slow down the increase in atmospheric CO2, like converting to biofuels (ethanol, biodiesel, etc.)

Well said. "We're going to exhaust all fossil fuels by 1999, aren't we?"

The same people who push this BS keep on buying homes in Malibu, Martha's Vineyard and the Hamptons. They'll be underwater soon if we don't do something. Everyone will have to move to Aspen! Oh, the Humanity!
