Your comments on my talk page
Don't bother making comments about my own beliefs on my talk page. The issue of climate change is wide ranging and open to debate. I myself am studying chemical engineering at The University of New South Wales and I have studied a lot of subjects in mathematics, science and engineering. The media and green groups will always say the worst is going to happen, but the simple fact of the matter is that we have only been measuring world temperatures for the last few decades and so all we can do is make predictions based on very little data. Remember that the Earth has been here a lot longer than a few decades. There are many proposed causes and explanations for climate change, but again these are all based purely on speculation. I don't think it's worth taking the risk in case it is established that man-made climate change exists, so we should indeed take precautionary measures like cutting carbon emissions. But understand that all my user page says is that I am not convinced that climate change exists in the first place. You'll find that there is about a 50:50 ratio for scientists/engineers around the world who believe climate change does or does not exist. I appreciate that the issue of climate change may be hard to understand. After all, you'll find that most sources of "information" are biased. They'll either say that climate change DEFINITELY EXISTS or that climate change DEFINITELY DOES NOT EXIST. There isn't a whole lot of reliable info on the internet. Even Wikipedia is divided between users trying to push there own particular views and opinions on nearly every article on Wikipedia.--Just James 08:05, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
