I use to think that was all it is. Capitalists will try to capitalize on anything including hysteria. Just like an alarm salesman will try to sell you an alarm by exagerating the crime statistics in your area, entrepreneurs will try to make money off of the global warming hysteria. But that isn’t the underlying problem. It is, at its base, a governmental power grab. If the government can control the energy supplies then they can control everything. The scary thing is that the progressive/Obamists actually think that this is a good thing and will do anything(lie/cheat/and steal) to bring it about.
Along with creating government offices for taking all of our medical records, every financial transaction, and requiring everyone send out tax forms to everyone they bought from or sold to through the whole year.
They also want to know all of the websites you visited at all times, but haven’t fully put that one into place. The others mentioned above, unfortunately, are already in place or will be funded starting in a few weeks.
I am convinced that this is exactly what is behind it. It's a big government, socialist power grab.
