Human-Environment Interaction + Warming cycle = Higher temperatures than previous warming cycles. WAY higher. You guys should really watch An Inconvenient Truth. Fantastic movie. I got my genetics teacher to show it in his classes, including Genetics. I've seen it ~5 times, because I've shown it to my friends. My parents still refuse to watch it, but I got my grandmother to (go figure), and convinced a lot of other people to watch it. There isn't a person on this planet that doesn't need to watch that movie, except for Al Gore, considering it is a movie of him presenting. By the way: There's some criticism firing about Al Gore being a hypcorite, because he has to fly around and give presentations. However, Al Gore almost always flies commercial, and when he has to fly private, he buys carbon credits - he drives a hybrid car, and any carbon dioxide he still outputs he buys carbon credits for. The end result - he's carbon-neutral. Carbon credits are basically a market where you buy (of your own conscience) your way to neutrality. All the money you use to make yourself carbon neutral (or at least less carbon-impacting) goes to research on new technologies that don't release CO2.
