"According to Paul Roberts global warming is a long lasting and cumulative problem."

In what way this this worth pointing out? Isn't this the position of anyone who believes, as indicated by all the available scientific evidence, that AGW is a real phenonema? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.156.126.215 (talk) 14:18, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I will remove the entire paragraph because the only reference it makes to either Paul Roberts or the book is the sentence that you cite, which really says nothing, as you have pointed out. Tracerbullet11 (talk) 07:26, 22 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
