    Has anyone done the research and decided what the magic number is? Reduce global greenhouse gases by 10%? 20%? 99%?
    This is the debate we SHOULD be having.

    Very few people believe in a fixed climate which is what this study looked for. Anthropogenic global warming is what some dispute.

    I'm sure there were a lot of people who thought we would never land a man on the moon yet we did it.

    Well if you believe the footage NASA faked anyways.

    I bet all the global warming people in this thread have at least one light on in another room that they're not using. And probably some other thing(s) that are wastefully drawing power.
