> I see enough evidence coming from both sides of the issue to tell me that there’s room for reasonable people to disagree.
And what evidence is there from the Deniers? By evidence I mean something that is factual, accurate, and relevant, preferably peer-reviewed science.

Interesting claim, now document anything I have said that is hyperbole, a half-truth, or hatred.
> it’s “very unlikely” that GW can be stopped.
And even when you are in a speeding vehicle headed for a concrete wall and it is ‘very unlikely that it can be stopped’ there is still a considerable advantage to slowing down as much as possible.
“radical change now, to combat a problem that climate scientists say cannot be resolved quickly”
It cannot be solved quickly if we institute radical change now. The scientists also say that if we do not institute radical change now it cannot be solved at all, with catastrophic consequences for humanity.
“What we see are calls for …”
From some quarters. There are other proposals. The one thing we know for a fact that will not work is the “do nothing and hope” strategy that we are currently using.
“Where is the criticism of Norway among the AGW proponents? Nowhere to be found. ”
i) Not on North American sites, no … it is pretty rare; but when you look at enviro sites in Norway, Scandanavia, Europe and International http://www.greenpeace.org/international/news/norwa … http://www.foeeurope.org/ http://www.greenpeace.org/norway/
ii) Compared to the US, Australia and Canada they are still light years ahead. When the worst offenders catch up then I am sure we will jump on Norway as well. In the meantime it would be like focusing on a thief when there is a gang of serial killers on the loose.
“This ultimately is not about science”
I know, the science is overwhelming yet the Deniers persist in fact free rants that are in direct opposition to reality.
“a far more pernicious and immediate threat to the survival of humanity”
An opinion that contradicts the science. I will need more than your claim and a 404 link.
