With scientific data piling up showing that the world has reached its hottest-ever point in recorded history, global-warming skeptics are facing a high-profile defection from their ranks.

Is there really a question that it's warming up? After all, it's been warming up for the last 12,000 years.
I thought the questions are;
Why?
How hot will it get?
How much of it is our fault?
Can we really do much about it?
Is the massive expense worth any effect we can produce?
I think one of the biggest problems is the whole thing has been distilled down to two sides, with their abbreviated slogans/sound bites. Fer us or agin us, with no discussion of the elements.
One example is CO2, everything is about CO2. Well I'm sorry but it's a hell of a lot more complicated than that. We had a real long thread that talked about the many facets. But since all that doesn't fit in a slogan, fergitaboutit.
