Excellent point. The fossil fuel industry want to pretend CO2 isn't a problem. BP recently ran an advertising campaign stating that if all cars used their magic clean petrol where it was available, the reduction in dangerous emissions would be the equivalent of taking 10 million cars off the road. Only when you rake around on their website, do you find that they don't consider carbon dioxide to be a dangerous emission.
If you read "State of Fear" by M-C... and actually look up some of the references in there... You come away wondering:
a) Is "global warming" really happening?
b) If "global warming" is really happening, is it due to anything mankind is doing?
Perhaps after reading this book (by a science fiction author) you will be confused about the issues. Scientists (other than those sponsored by George and co.) are pretty much unanimous though.
