re: #36 Charles

No it isn’t. There is an overwhelming amount of scientific evidence that human beings are responsible for the rise in CO2 levels.

Actually, I agree with bagua here. The original post,

In, at any rate, to the extent that science can ever be, which is to say that the evidence for man-made global warming is as strong as the evidence for Darwinian evolution, or for the link between smoking and lung cancer.

offers a comparison which is meaningless. There is no objective metric for such a statement. It isn’t so much that it’s wrong; it’s more that it’s baseless and without fact. The best that can be said about it is that it is pure opinion, despite wrapping itself in absolutism.
