BTW-
I am not suggesting that climate change is not ocurring. As I understand it, it is ALWAYS ocurring.
What I am suggesting is that:
1-The news media has decided what IT wants to write about and it is NOT a balanced discussion of the topic. There will be no airing of solid scientific discourse.
2-The conclusions about the degree of climate change, its rate, how to measure it, what it all means, are WAY off from being agreed upon. Yet, it is being presented as simply so.
3-This will NOT stop the guys I alluded to above, ALL of whom have a vested interest in having man made global warming be a reality and that it have AWFUL consequences.
4-It is not at all clear to me that ANYTHING that we do right now will make much difference in the long run. Moreover, any discussion of the positive consequences of a warmer planet are also verbotten.
5-That government actions will have an agenda that suits the government just fine. Look for LOTS of regulations and LOTS of new taxes, hidden and overt.
After all, the government has been making a living off of "sin taxes" for many years now.
Carbon is the new SIN.
