If we wait to act on anyting untill we have perfect science then we

And yes, there are other factors that influence climate.
One of the largest influences is solar activity.

Do you know we have been in a solar activity minimum.
We have not seen this few solar spots or winds in the last 100 years.

Now we are seeing a rapid increase in solar activity, just in the last few weeks.

The solar maximum is theorized to hit around the middle of 2012.

This will be the first time in the planets history that this much carbon is in the air during a solar peak.

Nobody knows what will happen, nobody.

Maybe nothing, maybe a lot.

Do we continue speeding down this busy street telling ourselves that we dont know that an accident will hurt us, because we have never been in one.

I would at least like to have a seat belt on.
OTOH, do we spend trillions of $$$$ on stuff that may not have any effect?
