“The weakest argument of course is that its not proven at all that global warming is man made.”

Er, meant to add that its not even proven that it is even occurring at the moment.

Or that it’s necessarily a bad thing.

I always like to talk about the ice age. About how first there were no glaciers anywhere near Long Island, NY, then there were glaciers on Long Island, then no glaciers.

Then I ask them how the humans changed the environment to result in glaciers on long island and how they changed the environment to get rid of the glaciers.

Then I say, the environment changes all the time and humans have nothing to do with it.

In 1974-1975 both Time and Newsweek wrote stories about the coming ice age or global cooling. They weren’t sure what was causing it, but they were pretty sure the govenment should do something about it.
