Who cares whether global warming is human-caused or just human-increased? It's a fact. Just face it and do what you can in order to live with it. And I don't mean focus on religious or other fanatics, that isn't helpful.
@kewpie saidIf global warming really is real why is there no fires in NZ and why did it just sNOw in Iraq?
