"On the other hand, if every one who denies global warming would suddenly see the error of his ways, admit that global warming is real and is the result of humans burning fossil fuels, and try to do something about it... well, that might actually make a difference! If we could stop global warming, hundreds of millions of lives would be saved."

That statement pre-supposes that Global warming is A) real and B) the result of humans burning fossil fuels. Both of those presuppositions are in dispute, and unlike some who say so, the science is not settled on the issue.

That being said, I ride because it's good for me and it saves me money, not because I buy the Global warming outcry. By the way, I don't deny the holocaust.
