Unfortunately, global warming and how to stop it have been pushed into the political realm.

The three things I'd most like to see in the entire debate are:
1) Complete data for as far back as there are accurate records of any kind--nobody's been willing to provide that, that I've seen, on either side of the debate
2) As complete data as possible showing how humans and their activities are involved in the warming/cooling/whatever it is
3) A science-based solution, not some apparently random governmental regulation. And by science-based, I mean one that looks at all sides of the issue if possible.

Guess what I have no hope of ever seeing? Yeah, that's right, #1 and #2 above. #3 is a little more hopeful...if the politicians can figure out which one to implement this year.
