Yes! Global Warming is happening! Even the best of the sceptics/deniers like Richard Linzden acknowledge this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATqQ0F6wRjY
But when I see the rantings of the ranks of minimally informed Private Frazers out there ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=endscreen&v=w7RIgs3eygo&NR=1 ) , it makes me despair. They pick up the catastrophe messages from what are no more than the prognostications of the AGW scientific community, via the IPCC press releases and then amplify, spin and distort these 'guesstimates' until there's no other sensible alternative to mass suicide.
Who knows? Maybe more good than harm will come from watching the mercury rise every year!

To generate electricity for a city of 1 million people for 1 year:___Mine 3,200,000 tonnes of coal - emit 8,500,000 tonnes of greenhouse gases and particulates - landfill 900,000 cubic metres of toxic/radioactive fly-ash.___OR___Mine 50,000 tonnes of uranium ore - emit no greenhouse gases - produce 24 tonnes of radiotoxic 'waste'.___OR___Mine 50 tonnes of equivalent thorium ore - emit no greenhouse gases - produce 0.8 tonnes of radiotoxic 'waste'.
