Lifts? Is that the up and down type? :-)

Yeah, that's a lovely story, but it is scientific fact that global warming is caused by pollution. Simple as that.
I'm always dubious of calling anything a scientific fact as many "scientific facts" tend to get ripped to bits over time. I would go with scientific theory personally.

No, that's true. The NHS is incredibly well funded and all of our schools are supreme. Oh, hold on, that doesn't sound right...
The NHS can be regarded as well funded. Throwing money at something does not make it good. Take a certain OS that has 90 plus percent of the market and is regarded as poor by a lot of people and the relatively poorly funded software projects that make up what is regarded as a good and very secure OS! :-D
