What%26#039;s up with the whole global warming issue? Do you believe in global warming? Is something really warming the earths surface and going to impact us in the long run? I guess I need others opinion to build upon my own. Deep down a part of me believes in it, and another half of that knows that it could be nothing. What do you think? . Beef CO2 levels taken from New Scientist publication in July 2007 that suggested that 1kg of meat cost the Earth 36kg in global warming gases. You can prove that walking produces more CO2 than driving a car!!!

heres a quite simple explanation for grown ups with loads of links;

%26quot;There%26#039;s a better scientific consensus on this [climate change] than on any issue I know... Global warming is almost a no-brainer at this point. You really can%26#039;t find intelligent, quantitative arguments to make it go away.%26quot;
