>you should encourage people to believe global warming is a problem that needs fixed as it would further your goals.< Not sure if you missed a /sarc on that? Anyway, I think the root cause is clearly 9 billion humans on the planet, thus I got myself 'fixed' after having 2 kids (2.1 is the replacement rate), but I'm not going to lie to people about some warming to make my point... in fact, that would probably distract yet again from seeing the underlying problem. It's quite depressing that people can't see three basic things: 1) exponential population growth is unsustainable (e.g. more than 2.1 kids) 2) resources per capita goes up when capita goes down (a good thing) 3) make a better world (technology, etc.) before increasing the population size... don't make it your kids' problem.
