Ever since the Kyoto agreements I've been always very much in favor of
restricting emissions. This ofcourse heavily influenced by our European
governments who keeps denying other views. Lately I've been reading into
a more opposing view.

One page I read yesterday pointed out that approx 400 mln years ago
levels of CO2 approached (or exceeded) 4000 ppm. And that with average
global temperatures slightly higher (like 1.5C) than today. Move up into
the future, 50 mln years ago levels of CO2 have lowered to slightly
lower than 1000 ppm. Temperatures however where at an alltime high.. 10C
higher than today! (R.A. Berner, 2001 (GEOCARB III))

Another interesting story extends on debunking Mann's et al
data-interpretations (the famous "Northern
Hemisphere Temperatures During the Past Millennium: Inferences,
Uncertainties, and Limitations" piece that heavily influenced the
European point of view). The Winter 2003-2004 story in 21st Century
features an article "The Ice Age Is Coming". It shows that there are
more interpretations of data than our European government would like us
to believe.
