The ill effects of burning fossil fuels are myriad and well-documented, from smog, to oil spills, to coal mine disasters, to smog, to ocean acidification.
I'm generally fairly hostile towards the fundamentalists on the other side of the debate becaause it's generally presented as if AGW was the lynchpin without which fossil fuels are a great fuel source.
And further, it's generally presented as if the 'global warming' part were somehow scientifically dubious, when all that is dubious is the 'anthropogenic' part.
So I may be a bit of a fundamentalist, but there are a lot of fundamental reasons fossil fuels are not okay. Nuclear, wind, and solar are where it's at.
