If you're trying to say that anthropogenic climate change isn't real.....well, the science just happens to say otherwise, friend.
However, though, I can admit that the media is guilty of spreading fear and misinformation with BOTH extremes; "Climategate" type stuff on the denier side, and various hardcore doom-and-gloom nuttiness on the "doomer" side. The latter extreme is highly unproductive and usually full of B.S., and the former actually goes a step further by purposefully misinterpreting the science in an even more dishonest fashion.

I agree with most of this, but there's one thing that needs to be addressed.
