The popular theory states that as carbon dioxide levels increase so too will the temperature at an exponential rate.
According to the popular "greenhouse effect" theory carbon dioxide is the main driver of the Earth's temperature however according most of the reliable science I've seen it isn't and it as things stand today cannot have any significant effect on the planet's temperature due to limitations of carbon dioxide's ability to absorb radiation.
I'm for the sensible protection of the...

I will take your advise into consideration…and in my defense you knew it was five rounds before it started. And just so you know my sources were documentaries, and a stack of papers on my desk.
just for the record, I didn't post my arguement because I have been so busy. Also, to be perfectly honest, a 5-round arguement is basically the equivalent of beating a dead horse...you end up repeating yourself because it is simply too long...
advice? Stick to 3 MAYBE 4 rounds. 5 is ridiculous...
The question isn't whether or not carbon dioxide has an effect on the temperature it's whether or not it can cause catastrophic heating as outline by Al Gore and other alarmist. And I don't know why I have to constantly repeat this but: CO2 is not the most important gas. H2O is.
I don't see how pro can win this argument... It is true that carbon dioxide is not the only gas that factors in the greenhouse equation, however, it does. In fact, it contributes the most. The point is, unless pro can prove that carbon dioxide has no effect on temperature, then he cant win. Seeing as carbon dioxide does, in fact, have an effect on temperature...its a lost battle
yeah, 5 rounds really is too long. I can understand 4, but 5 is ridiculous!
I know, that's why I didn't take this debate.
5 ROUNDS!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! that seems like over-kill
