Global warming, the favorite playing card of politicians and the press.
Is Global Warming for real? Yes. Is mankind the cause of it? Debatable. But the Al Goons of the world stake their (dubious) reputation on it and get awards.
There is a ton of scientific data to prove that there are other causes of Global Warming, yet the overzealous Al Goons blame it solely on Greenhouse gases. Based on less than 100 years of accurate temperature data, they claim their absolute proof, while conveniently ignoring thousands of years of archeological findings that shows Global Warming has been occurring on and off for millenia.
Global Warming is much too complex for their simple minds to comprehend, so they make a political playing card out of it.

Oh believe me Kirby, I agree with you. I read this recently in the Times On Line of all places, "Walking does more than driving to cause global warming, a leading environmentalist has calculated."
Interesting article. I like this excerpt:
Diesel trains in rural Britain are more polluting than 4x4 vehicles. Douglas Alexander, when Transport Secretary, said: “If ten or fewer people travel in a Sprinter [train], it would be less environmentally damaging to give them each a Land Rover Freelander and tell them to drive”
