Global warming due to man made green house gases is a hoax perpetrated by enviromentalists who tried to sell mass transit, smart growth, zero population growth, etc., but the people would not buy it so they are selling "you are all going to die"

Global warming is a fact, but whether man is causing it is in dispute and whether or not it is bad is also in dispute.

The earth has been warmer and colder in the past without any help from man.

Further, if it comes to an ice age or a hot period, a hot period is preferable. That is it will be better to be a few degrees warmer than colder.

It's also a remarkably effective fund-raising tool and red-meat fear tactic to unify the liberal sheeple as elections or big legislative decisions near.

Quite true. The earth was warmer I believe in the time of Shakespeare, for example.

One+ degree in warming is nothing to bankrupt the economy over.

Global warming due to man made green house gases is a hoax perpetrated by environmentalists who tried to sell mass transit, smart growth, zero population growth, etc., but the people would not buy it so they are selling "you are all going to die" EXACTLY! Moreover, it's a process that should take a very long time and somehow these folks feel the need to accelerate the "consequences." Why? Well, if there is a timetable to establish a socialistic world order with extremely limited personal liberties and even more tightly restricted ability for any individual or population to move of it's own accord...then it become necessary to justify draconian laws to achieve these planned goals.

Want to restrict movement? Ban the internal combustion engine. In his first book, ALGORE proposed exactly this.

Want to ban guns? Start with banning SUVs and then there will be no hunters able to get to the hunting grounds. Then the "sporting purpose" firearm becomes an ultra lethal long range sniper rifle that has to be banned along with the rest of them whose obvious purpose is the killing of our fellow man, anyway.

The point is, in order to create the required sense of urgency, the inevitable results have to be on the horizon to affect everybody currently living...not some future generation. It's the same thing they keep saying about the myth of Peak Oil. We're about to run out of oil. We've found all the dead dinos there ever were...and then along comes the discovery of another oil field like the HUMONGOUS one found in the Gulf of Mexico last summer. Oil ain't dead dinosaurs. It is a-biotic and manufactured deep in the mantle of the earth. It is carried outward from there by the centrifugal spin of the planet. Read Black Gold Stranglehold by Craig R. Smith and Dr. Jerome Corsi Ph.d.

Global warming is a fact theory, but whether man is causing it is in dispute and whether or not it is bad is also in dispute. Scientists are evenly split on the theory. It seems to be chisled in stone FACT just because the msm seems to only concentrate on the scientists that are global warming proponents and they ridicule those who oppose. Sound familiar?

The earth has been warmer and colder in the past without any help from man. Yup. One of the warmest summers on record happened in the early 1800's. Far hotter than any in the 20th or 21st century to date. Tell me about all the man made industry that caused that terrible season...

Agreed with all except that as the polar caps melt the sea level rises, making trillions of dollars of oceanfront property unlivable. Mankind will still go on of course...

Global warming is a fact,
See my previuous post; you, too, have been taken in and have failed to do your homework.
