urban10, I have no agenda - but the fact is we are experiencing higher temperatures in a year, and whether human-induced or not, the question about earth self-sustainability and equilibrium is up to discussion. So far (cf. Nasa, Nooa, IPCC, etc), the oceans have been able to absorb medium temperature rise and maintain the equilibrium, but it is clear that there's a limit for that capability. The ability of the earth to snap back and fight it off is a creed - as good listening to Pan flutes - and is not a scientific fact. If we can come up with solutions to lessen our impact on the atmosphere what wrong can possibly come from it? Even if it's irrelevant why not try to reduce it to a minimum? I think it doesn't hurt anyone if every country is trying to be more self-sustained. Also, it would probably mean much less war and conflict - although that is also probably a part of natural equilibrium go figure...
