Seen it three times. What I meant by "We just don't know" is that we have no idea how to solve a problem that we should not be sure exists. Trying to fix it could range from the human catastophe noted in GGWS for lack of economic development, but it could also have unintended consequences (if carbon dioxide is the primary gas that traps heat and it is "banned") of precipitating global cooling (wouldn't that be ironic?) which could have even more catastrophic human results.

Thanks. I know what you meant I was just trying to make a point for the general population on this thread. You are absolutely correct, the law of unintended consequences is a more powerful force than all the good intentions of man put together.
