Is global warming the greatest challenge facing humankind?

I think that global warming is NOT the greatest challenge facing humankind, because we have more important problems in this world that need to be taken care of. For instance, war. The war in Iraq is so horrible that innocent people are dying because of it. And to me that’s where I draw the line! If I was president I would try to stop the war in Iraq. For instance, Socrates once said “Ignorance is the only evil”. And right now there is a lot of ignorance in the world. And there is definitely a bunch of evil in the world.
