Global warming is a political ruse meant to greenlight global totalitarian government.
McKeating and Loserman are politicians.
End of story.
You can do anything you want in the name of preventing global warming because anybody who would question whatever it is you want to do is a heretic - a denier.
That has to be what is behind this Global Warming nonsense. You never, ever hear anything positive about what a warmer climate would be like (assuming it is warming at all). From what I've read about the medieval warming period, humans prospered in ways never before seen. It doesn't sound that bad to me.....
