ecoli,
Okay, maybe we need more research to be certain. I don't want to jump to conclusions and create widespread panic any more than the next guy. And, yes, I'm basing what I say in this thread purely on An Inconvenient Truth. But if I may do this, then what the data shows is that the current rise in temperature is anything but natural. We have never had a rise as sharp or as high as this in the past 650,000 - not even close. You say that the world has been warmer than it already is, but that's not what Gore said. The world goes through periodic warm and cold cycles, and he clearly pointed out that it never goes above a certain temperature. In the late twentieth century, we went past that ceiling by two times!
Millions of years ago there was a period of time when earth went through a "hothouse" climate phase.No ice was present at the poles and life struggles to survive.
Plus there are a number of times in the climate past where the planets temperature were way above what we have seen in the 20th century.
Gore is way off.

I agree that there is a mild warming trend.A trend that is slowing down in recent years.
I do not agree that atmospheric CO2 is the main driver of the warming.
I think the sun is the main driver of the mild warming trend.
I do not think using GCM's for long into the future climatic projections makes for valid science.It can not be testable.
Cheers

You will need a filter system if you use drip lines.They can clog easily with pond water.
