In the case of the elevation, I was just pointing out the possibility that the aluminum foil hat wearers aren't lying about one small item. Most of the article is the standard "sky is falling, we're all going to die, no scientific evidence" garbage.
On human-caused global warming, since I've done my own extensive research, I'm solidly in the "there isn't any consistent scientific evidence and I remember the global cooling scare 30 years ago so let's don't panic" camp. I always post what I believe is true, no matter the consequences. I've been flamed more than a few times.
I agree with you. The whole mess of global warming has been so polluted with politics to the extent that an accurate take is not out there. It is too bad that know-nothings with shrill voices are ruling the coop these days.
