The 'population' of the 'scinetific community' who believe we are not affecting our environment is limited to the crackpots
We are, the REAL problem is we can't all decide in what way and how best to prevent it.
For example, one latest theory is that we're accelerating the weather changes be REDUCING the CO2 pollutants. They helped warm the environment and kept in balance the impact of other pollutants which are cooling it !! Both man-made problems on top of natures cycles.
Best is if we can try to let nature stabilise to it's cycles and reduce our impact on it. It's a complex machine we have little concept of and so far are turning some pretty BIG changes by oru actions.
now i'm not saying you should go guzzle gas like crazy and i'd like to say that low emmisions technology, alternative fuel sources are important but not as desperate as we've been led to believe
It's desperate because it's a limited resource.
The UK is now a net importer of gas. So we've used up our slice of the natural resource Who's next ??
