Global warming sure is a good debate subject. I'd like to share my own
weird perspective on it and thus add to this debate. So, the funny
thing is that I remember from my school years (80s in the Soviet
Union) that a CO2-induced global warning was presented as a proven
scientific fact. However, it was not at all positioned as anything to
fear or fight, just as an ongoing evolution of the Earth's climate
that humans will adapt to as they adapted to all past climate changes.
Kind of like "average temperature rises - move along, nothing to see
here." As a result, I never thought for a second that climate change
can be such a hot controversial subject pretty much until Al Gore.

And now the weird thing perceptual happened: the more I hear screams
"It is a fact! Fact! FACT!" the more I doubt it. After hearing all the
noise about it in recent 2-3 years, I am on the verge of being
convinced that it is a sham invented by politicians to grab some
taxpayer megabucks...
