Just goes to show that words on a message board don't always convey the true meaning...or else you are not wanting to hear what I am saying my thoughts on it are.
So here is what I see:
The Earth's climate is going to change no matter what. There is absolutely nothing that scientists can do about that. Nothing.
Also, it's not even a "bad" thing that it is changing. It's not going to kill us or destroy civilization. Unless a catastrophic NATURAL event happens, the human race is perfectly capable of living in much warmer and much cooler temps either way.
In the meantime...some very rich corporations are getting a lot richer with scaring the shit out of people by claiming that CO2 produced by man is causing the Earth to get warmer and that will kill us all.
So in order to "fight" that...they are going to create carbon trading and make billions of dollars.
In other words, as usual, it's all about money.
As I've said before...if it were a real threat, the govt. leaders around the world would respond to it (just like we did for WW2).
Instead they are more worried about the latest boogieman in the Middle East (which we are bombing and creating more pollution and "carbon footprints" with our military than all the cars in the world put together)
Hope that makes my own position more clear to you so you don't have to ponder my thoughts and insult me.
YOU are the one buying into it. And if you were old enough to be an adult in the 1970's you would be agreeing with the "settled science" that we were going into an Ice Age because of mankind.
And the 1970 govt. memo during the Richard Nixon administration that claimed that the entire Eastern seaboard was 100% going to be underwater before the year 2000.
Yep, that was the greatest scientists on Earth making those claims as well.
It's all about money and power. When shit gets real, you will know it. The country would mobilize (just like the threat during WW2) and the games will be over.
Do you see that happening? Or do you see our politicians riding in limousines and big private jets while they order our military to fly jet planes, ride in heavy tanks, sail on giant aircraft carriers, and bomb the hell out of other countries?
You should really consider that.
Anytime I see people saying "Do as I say, not as I do" ... I question it.
You only seem to be questioning the people who DO question govt.
You are the perfect mark.
Think about what I'm saying 20 years from now. Unless a meteor hits the Earth or a volcano erupts of such power that it creates a nuclear winter...NOTHING will change.
Except some people will get much, much richer from the fear mongering.
