I can't stand to hear the term global warming. Is the globe warming? Yes. Is it caused by human action? Maybe. Is there any point in arguing over it? No.

The fact remains that the burning of fossil fuels has many confirmable negative consequences that reach beyond the global warming debate. This very threads subject is one of many negative geopolitical effects. Also plenty of undeniable environmental and health effects exist that support the cause of alternative fuels.

Don't be sidetracked by fruitless debates.
