I personally think there's a lot of sensationalism to both. The media gets higher ratings for the hype. They want to get the chicken littles of the world to yell out that the sky is falling.
Well, I'm not buying it. So what if the temperature gets a little warmer or cooler, or whatever the paranoid are calling it these days! We experience mini cycles of global warming and cooling every year, they're called seasons.
The world isn't going to come to an end because it gets 3-5 degrees warmer or cooler. Remember, we've had ice ages before, and I believe we're still technically coming out of one. My state, 10,000 years ago, was covered in Glaciers. What made them melt? Was it automobile emissions?
I feel that politicians are shooting arrows at the sun. They're putting all this effort into something that is going to have zero results, all the while stealing from our paychecks each week to pay the bill for their stupidity!
