Agreed. What it may take, however, to turn the ship is more than a core argument. The greenies have succeeded by alarming the masses with the help of a media that needs drama to sell its information. What is the alarming element of the skeptics' side of the argument that would not make our own skin crawl for exaggerating the truth?

The media will lose its consumer product advertisers if everyone refrains from buying toilet paper. I worry about the eradication of scientific teaching in favor of political propagandizing which will ultimately create a high amount of cynicism in the young. I think the world government aspect should be alarming to anyone with a tiny bit of common sense. But ultimately the drama that the globalist alarmists have fostered will have to be replaced with some other drama more suitable for selling soap powder, maybe some new health scare or an asteroid heading for earth.
