#2 Isn't the world already at war and has been since the beginning of time? I see climate change less responsible for war and more the high cost of energy since that adds to food cost (both transport and production) and wars coming from that rather than climate change.

#3 IIRC, the Guinness Book of Records once listed that in the four thousand years of history [Egypt 2000 BC - Today], there's only been around 200 years of peace in the 'civilized' world.

#5 I think it's absolutely absurd when some "educated idiot" like this tells us we've got to control climate. Man is not capable of changing the climate at this time, and all thought to the contrary is charlatinship. Climate has changed ever since the earth was formed, and like the Chinese proverb, "this, too, will change". We have scientific evidence that average temperatures were higher during the Roman Warming, the Midieval Warm Period, and dozens of times throughout the past 3 or 4 billion years. To state that today's climate is the "average" or "ideal" is a statement of overwhelming conceit. Anyone spouting such nonsense should be jailed for fraud.

#6 If the world is going to war it's good to be the country with the biggest military (or close allies with) isn't it.

#7 Ten years from now global warming/climate change will be laughed at as the same type of wildly exaggerated, paranoid nonsense as Y2K.

#8 yep, Kirk it will. In fact, I've become more worried about "Global cooling" than warming, as that can cause *real* chaos (via food/crop failure, cold deaths, etc.)
