The general consensus is only in the main stream media, not the scientific community.
I believe they have documented some changes, but no one has any idea if changes are do
to mankind.

The storm thing is pure BS. If you believe it, all forms of weather anomalies could be
linked to global warming. If you get a unusually cold winter, it's global warming. If
you get a hot summer stretch it's global warming. You can't win. We do know that
weather changes.

If it starts affecting the economy, and we know we can change it (it's man made),
counter measures will probably be taken.

Yep. For further information, maybe we should call the Psychic Friends Network.

Either did Clinton.
