The whole myth is based on bad and biased science. Yes, we have an effect of the world around us, but the planet is still on the way out of the last ice age, so it's warming up anyway, in addition to that there is the 100-150 year cycle of warming and cooling (Which gets neatly forgotten).
Tree-ring evidence shows clearly that warming/cooling on the scale of what we are seeing now has happened many times in the life times of some of the planet's longest lived trees.
That is not to say that we shouldn't clean up our act. We don't want to poison the planet with exhaust fumes, etc, but please, if we are to be told to clean up, explain WHY honestly, don't make up grandiose lies and exaggerations to over-make the point, it just ruins your otherwise laudable position...
