What a waste of manpower and resources. Manmade global warming or even actual global warming is a long way from being determined as a fact but by those who want it to be a fact. The data is biased and the conclusions from this data are definitely biased.

Nelson, forget about global warming. Plug-in hybrids are the only way to get the driving culture of America and elsewhere to drastically reduce gas consumption. Not only will this reduce dependence on foreign oil, but it will also solve urban air pollution and smog. Not even biofuels can do the latter.
