A lot of the arguments I am hearing these days boils down to this — “We must at least do something ON THE CHANCE that global warming might be true. If we’re wrong, the most harm we will get is a cleaner planet.”
That is incorrect. Progressives never spend time considering the actual implications that could occur if they were wrong. If they did actually do that, they would not be progressive. Always progressing forward never atoning for your past sins. We know for a fact that eventually the ice age will return. And historically, it will return within a relatively short time. So if the government forces us to prepare for warming, when in actuality we are going to get cooling, millions could die.
New York under water! Or even Venice, Italy PERMANENTLY under water, or Venice California Under water. I don’t care about 2078 or some point in the distant future. It must be NOW. Then—if the problem is real—we can fix it or move to high ground. Sure, lots of folks will die—but they always do—with famine, war and bad weather. The USA—with all he resorces and power couldn’t stop it by herself. We are not the major poluter anymore.
