EVERY day we hear day more and more rhetoric about climate change.

Has anybody thought that in the last 20 years the world's population has grown by two billion? They need food. Deforestation accounts for nearly 25 oer cent increase in CO2 emissions, year on (source www.worldnet.com).

Our planet has also been moving closer to the sun, as our orbit is not clearly defined. Thus, a 1C change in the global core temperature would cause the earth's crust to shift more, causing more volcanic explosions and teutonic plate shifts.

It has also been noted that the polar ice cap on Mars is melting at an accelerated rate which parallels the melting of our own ice caps and astronomers worldwide have noted that the temperature of Venus has also risen.

Isn't it funny that none of this is experienced on earth and that all rises in temperature are man made?
