Recently I've been doing some reading (online mostly) into the subject. I'm finding it challenging to sift through the politics of both sides and come up with objective science. I find it truly disheartening that people will blatantly manipulate and/or ignore data for their own political or personal agendas (this goes both ways). So to over-simplify there's two extremes:

1. Global warming is a direct result of pollution and will kill us all.

2. Global warming (casued by man) is a myth heavily supported by anti-capitalist Socialists.

Somewhere in the middle is the truth. It's clear that Al Gore's recent documentary is biased. And while the other link (which is a petition of 1000's of scientists who disagree with global warming alarmists) presents large amounts of data, I still get the feeling of it being propagandized.

I'm still no expert on the subject by any means, and for the most part remain objectively undecided. While I have no problem accepting the premise that we are affecting our climate, I do find it really annoying when people attribute every little thing to global warming, like hurricanes (link about that aspect).

Edit: I originally was going to do a poll but changed my mind after submitting the thread, but I guess the server got confused, thus the poll icon next to the title, yet no poll is present. Oh well.
