True, I don't have a passion for it at all. I find the whole idea that we could be responsible for global warming to be far fetched. The idea that we could do anything to prevent/alter it is also to me, pretty far fetched really. In short I find the whole thing to be mainly a waste of effort. We could be curing diseases or something more useful.

If you can't be bothered to know anything about it, then you shouldn't be commenting on it. For you, global warming has become a religious belief. So, even if articles existed which laid out and cited the risks and benefits of warmer climate (http://skepticalscience.com/global-warming-positives-negatives.htm http://skepticalscience.com/global-warming-positives-negativ...), or which showed that humans are indeed very capable of altering their environment (http://skepticalscience.com/Are-humans-too-insignificant-to-affect-global-climate.htm http://skepticalscience.com/Are-humans-too-insignificant-to-...), or that debunked the myth that it won't matter anyway (http://skepticalscience.com/climate-sensitivity.htm http://skepticalscience.com/climate-sensitivity.htm), or that global warming can contribute to the spread of diseases (http://www.ebiologynews.com/3137.html http://www.ebiologynews.com/3137.html) ... ...you would still ignore them.

  3 of those sources are the same (obviously pro-manmade global warming) website. (Probably from people who get government funding to do the research). It doesn't interest me to learn all about the thoery/(At times it seems like a religion), but I don't think that should stop me from commenting on it. The issue is, anyone can pull 'facts' out of the air to support either side of the debate. It's not a clear cut thing, it's a heap of theories about what might be going on. My point was, there's more useful things to investigate/research/worry about.
