We are taking millions of years of carbon sequestration and dumping it into  
the atmosphere in a mere hundred years or so. This is causing rapid change  is 
the energy balance of the atmosphere which will lead to catastrophic global  
temperature increase. There just isn''t any significant uncertainty in the  
physics here, at least in broad detail. We are heading for very bad times.
