SENATE DEFEATS EFFORT TO OPEN THE ARCTIC REFUGE TO OIL DRILLING

>>> eg Hydrogen when burnt becomes water = a great greenhouse gas = global warming. <<<

OK, this is the dumbest thing in a very dumb thread. H20 is NOT a greenhouse gas and does not contribute to global warming. Not that it would remain in the atmosphere if it did.

Sheesh. Why do scientific illiterates feel they have something to offer on a thread like this?

"Sheesh. Why do scientific illiterates feel they have something to offer on a thread like this?"

Speaking of scientific illiterates, does anyone remember the Newsweek cover of about 20 years ago about the coming global ice age? On to the current hysteria of the greenhouse effect and global warming caused by cow farts. Last Saturday Art Bell (I know, I know) has a guy on that has a book with the NEW theory of how global warming in causing the coming of the next ice age within the next decade or two and he has the statistic to prove it.

Then Sunday night Mr Bell had a guy on that says the aliens have told him that the world environment will be destroyed if George Bush is elected. I don't worry about it as I have my tinfoil hat on and I have holes in my bellows to worry about.
