    They stopped calling it global warming. It is now called climate change.

    Fact. In the past 100 years the average temperature of the planet as a whole dropped a degree.

    While 1 degree may not seem like much, it only take a 4 degree shift to wipe out some species.

    Fact 2 - One volcano puts out more pollution in one day than we do in 50 years. But this does not mean I am for pollution. I still vote doing thing the green way if possible and economically feasible.

    Obama can only hope that global warming will be a competitive issue, than it may take some heat away from the economy for him. His ratings on handling the economy are not good right now.
