    Hi Bacci, I will take my cues from the IPCC and the latest from them is that it is "highly likely" or words to that effect - I don't have the exact words in front of me. I do believe that IPCC has a conservative, non-alarmist, non-combative approach and that things could be far worse than the picture they are painting. There is so much noise around now from the denialist camp that it is hard to know exactly what is happening. They have certainly succeeded in Part 1 of their subversion campaign - muddy the water to give the illusion that there is an ongoing debate re: AGW.

    Here is a summary of the fourth IPCC assesssment report (AR4) from 2007 in the form of a "Synthesis Report"...

    P.S. Whoever said on the other thread that sea levels were not rising might want to have a look at the chart on page 9 of the report above. Plus here is the Wikipedia chart...
