Hello Richard,
If you, or anyone else would like to get the facts of Global Warming, I suggest you go to see the Documentary Film "An Inconvenient Truth"
Its a very powerful film. It is also due to come out on DVD (around November 2006). Well worth watching.
Al Gore spend a lot of money to get this film produced, since he wanted to influence President GW Bush to change his policy on Carbon emmissions.
Polar Bears are Drowning -

...and
Climbing Everest has become too easy today.
It can now be climbed in just ten hours! Says the Abbot of Tengboche Monastery, Nepal. Because- "there is less snow, and the glaciers are shrinking rapidly"
....and he should know, they supply the sherpas for the ascents.
