Here's the thing about global warming: 
 currently we are entering a grand solar minimum, that means we are all going to be a good deal colder over the next few decades. If any of these so called scientists could be bothered to check in with the Danish research station up in Greenland once in a while, they'd know that the ice sheet up there is increasing, not melting.
 They have also conveniently, or should I say studiously, ignored the fact that hundreds of low temperature records have been broken worldwide over the last year or so. In fact, it's been so bloody cold here in sunny southern England that we only took the winter duvet off the bed a couple of weeks ago.

Since David Attenborough has been mentioned, do you remember Walking with dinosaurs? In one of those programmes he mentioned something that made me sit up and take notice. I haven't watched it in years, so this is not verbatim, but what he said was, prior to the last set of ice ages there was no ice anywhere on the planet for three hundred million years.
 Imagine that!  No ice! Three hundred million years! Huge herds of flatulent herbivorous dinos rampaging across the planet! The horror! 
The world obviously didn't become uninhabitable either because we're still here.
 Yet were supposed to be worried about a miniscule rise in the atmospheric percentage of a gas that is essentially plant food and cow farts?

Pollution should be the number one priority worldwide. Lets clean up the oceans, get poisons from industrial processes out of our rivers and soil and start farming responsibly and compassionately.
But no, we can't do that because big industries aren't to blame, it's us not sorting our recyclables and driving around in cars.
