I don't know, but I think we should "err on the side of caution" and act as though it was... even if that means damaging our economy (and real people). Hey, not fair! I agreed with the statement up until that last part about hurting people! I guess I don't like the idea that such policies have negative real consequences...

I don't know, but I think we should "err on the side of caution" and protect the very real families whose well-being and jobs would be impacted by warming legislation -- thus we should NOT yet pass laws that impact the economy, especially since they're based on a theory that is far from certain or conclusive.

It's an active attempt to mislead the public, as evidenced by the fact that NASA (and other governement agencies) have been caught falsifying data to make warming theory appear more credible; and "dissenting opinion" scientists on the government payroll are routinely fired.

Global Warming: Scientific Fact or Political Agenda? Or both?

Again: I am not arguing against climate change. That is real and we can all see it.

I am contesting man-made climate change. I believe humans are too small to have an effect at Planetary level.

These articles play on the human fear of "what will happen once the Earth warms even more" and just "assume" that man is to blame for that. Which is far from proven.

Of course, pollution has it's "local" effects if you will.. Crowded cities with too many CO2 emissions from cars certainly affect the health of the local population. With that I can agree and imposing some restrictions locally to protect the population is more than ok. But to start a "cult" about the man-made global warming and theories like "if we don't act now it will be too late" is like signing a blank check to the governments of the world to do whatever they want having this as an excuse. Typical manipulative bs!
