lol you guys are more interested in "winning" against me more than the issues, slathar especially. Slathar would rather spread the notion that the climate isnt affected by CO2 than missing a chance to get back at me. The point of the El Salvador example was that its already hot as fuck down there and they cant really deal with a 2-5 degree increase in temperature.

Whether or not they can deal with it has no bearing on the discussion. The climate is cyclical and has been for billions of years. Whether humans are on the planet or not, the geographical location of El Salvador will warm and cool without humans in the equation.
You also obviously didn't read some of the links above. The earth hasn't been on a warming trend since 1997, yet our C02 levels have skyrocketed in that time period. Meaning C02 itself doesn't influence the climate as much as was once believed. Ie; Activist scientists are desperately trying to come up with "reasons". Fact is, we don't understand yet. The climate is extremely complex and factors outside of our planet also play a role. It is foolish, and downright irresponsible to attempt to make any drastic changes to our way of life until we actually understand our place in the equation. We may end up doing more harm than good.
Also I don't think Ulth was saying a mass extinction of man, by man is good. I beleive he was saying from a statistical standpoint that another mass extinction is immenent.
