      I voted the nearest option to "I'm not convinced that the evidence and science is comprehensive".

      I don't deny that CO2 emitted by human civilisation might be having an effect on the global climate, but I've yet to see evidence that it probably is let alone that it certainly is responsible. Climate changes are a normal part of how the planet functions, you only have to take a look at the fossil records to see that.

        I'd have preferred a multiple choice poll.

          I know it wouldn't be applicable to most here who like to argue about AGW, but where's the "I'm intelligent enough to realise I don't know enough to know for sure" option?

          Although I'll vote whichever way you want if it'll shut you up.

                What options need to be added to get YOU to shut up?

                You are always piling into threads that you claim don't interest you and chiming in with irrelevant soundbites.

                Honestly................isn't there a God-Bothering Forum you'd feel more at home in?

                  Do you have a mainframe access that forces you read everything to get to the threads you want to read?

                  I find it quite fascinating you keep reading and posting in boring threads.

                    Stands to reason. As you move from 'General Public' to 'Active Climate Researcher' the proportion who answer yes to the question Do you think human activity is a significant contributing factor in changing mean global temperatures? increases, ending up at 97%.



                    Source Given the degree of informedness round here I am mildly surprised the correct answer got as many votes as it did ... ;-)

                    My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.
