Have u noticed how MSM is trying to define the climate change debate as "real or not real" Instead of man-made?

I noticed this on CNN yesterday. They were finally forced to acknowledge the release of hacked emails from the University of East Anglia Climate Research Unit (CRU) which seem to indicate their was manipulation of climate data.

So CNN asks the question: Do you believe in climate change??

But isn't the primary debate over whether MAN-MADE global warming is real?? Not climate change?? (climate has changed naturally in cycles over time until this point)

Because isn't the idea of Cap&Trade to put a cap on MAN-MADE carbon emissions that contribute to MAN-MADE climate change?? Well if it isn't MAN-MADE, then wouldn't this be another money grab by the epically corrupt U.S. govt?? (Considering Cap&Trade would result in higher taxes and higher energy prices)

    The debate should be about what to do about it. We've wasted enough time debating who is responsible. The Age of fossil fuels and industrialisation must come to an end.

    It is real, and there is no doubt that man has contributed to it by stripping and over consumption of the earths natural resources, carbon emissions and such... But nothing contributes more to it then these scientific researches that have proven what happened in the past over and over - and is happening again today. The most common contribution is the Siberian Traps.

    international warming is the comparable element as climate exchange. if the earth gets lots warmer, the climate has replaced. climate exchange is basically a extra ordinary way of naming the concern, case in point, it may aloso recommend, say, the climate have been given waaaay less warm, like yet another ice age, which, paradoxically, in accordance to 3, international warming could reason.

    Yeah, the pentagon-operated media loves the good old "Smoke and Mirrors" trick to distract the people. This is getting ridiculous and what's sad is that most of the people aren't going to hear about it unless Jon and Kate start talking about the issue.

    What is really funny is that the "news" is always asking us questions! Are they not supposed to dig and find out and report the problems, and present them as checked facts? so quit wasting your time watching corporate controlled media. THEY ARE NOT NEWS.

    Source(s): on co2 find out the difference between "forced" and "feedback" and watch "global dimming"..thanks
