why do people insist on not believing that global warming is a problem?

HOW do people believe that increased industry, growth in population and production could NOT increase energy and heat that could cause a rise in environmental temperature. Sure, it doesn't appear that the effects will be felt during our lifetime, but after all, aren't the steps we're taking, with our jobs and families and thoughts of the future, not for us after all? Aren't they for the future - kids, grandkids, etc?

Tell you what, if you want to believe that its all made up and its a bunch of political propoganda, believe what you'd like. But if you can make some steps to be a little more conscious of the issue, and your personal effect, good for you, you're thinking a little more broadly than before. And everyone appreciates someone who thinks about the welfare of others.
