Yes, it is true.
We all know the sun heats the earth. Therefore, if the sun gets hotter, the earth gets hotter. But did you know the earth heats itself to a certain extent? We all know the center of the earth is hot molten metal. This heat is generated from the crushing mass of the earth itself causing friction heat at the center of the earth. We all know that volcanoes spew this hot molten metal and rock up to the surface of the earth as magma or lava. Recently, huge active volcanoes have been discovered even under the ice of the artic, undoubtly contributing to the ice melt. Now, 'hydrothermal vents' directly pumping super heated water under the ice have been discovered. Read about it here.

I say the earth is a complex ecological system that man is hundreds of years away from understanding. These hydrothermal vents are amazing.
What do you say.

But Redyellowblackdog Al Gore said it was us, not including himself, that is causing global warming:-)
Can you tax the earth, no. Can you socialize the earth, no. Can you tax man, yes. Can you socialize man, yes. That is the big thing. Science has nothing to do with this argument, politics does. Sure the sun heats the earth, and so too does the center of the earth, but you cannot tax or socialize them.
Have you heard about this carbon scrubber, it is an invention that so brainies from Columbia University that has come up with that removes carbon from the air. Who is against this environmentals. Why, because it will allow man to still use fossil fuels.

A carbon scrubber? I wonder if these geniuses know carbon dioxide is essential for all life on earth? No CO2, no plants. More CO2, more plants. More plants = more food. Even more food for the animals we eat. So, even if you only eat meat, more CO2 = more plants = more food. Sounds to me some scientists are trying to cash in on the hysteria.
