| According to a group of scientists brought together by documentary-maker Martin Durkin, if the planet is heating up, it isn't your fault and there's nothing you can do about it.
We've almost begun to take it for granted that climate change is a man-made phenomenon. But just as the environmental lobby think they've got our attention, a group of naysayers have emerged to slay the whole premise of global warming.
What do you think? Please post your comments, Root wants to hear what our readers have to say.

I am a geologist... and that program completly amazed me! Ok, one can account for temperature fluctuations in geological times, and these have been of great amplitude in the past. But come on - the changes were in the long term, so in such a short period of time!
10 years ago people were saying that there was no proof for climate change... and you that there are proves, some are starting to deny them! The truth is, scientists on both side could be using the data to their advantage, to fit what ever political agenda may support their funding... but in all reasonnable sense, I think the evidence strongly suggests that humans ARE having an impact on the climate. The problem is to quantify this impact because there are so many variables.
