Now, I'm not saying that we should not respect and protect the environment. But, respect and protect are a FAR cry (as far as east is from west, or left from center) from alarmist and cap-n-tax - another of their attempts to control our lives and re-distribute wealth.
New York Times STILL thinks we are stupid and have no other sources of information than...the New York Times. They just don’t get it. Nor do I think do they realize how absurd they look when they run stuff like this. They are in a bubble, and the bubble is circling the drain.
Really?
Where was the media poo-pooing all of the talk during every war about conspiracies that bring us into combat to benefit the military-industrial complex?
This is a ponzi scheme. It has flip floppped saying that we are heading into an ice age and then into a drought.
They are controlling the type of lightbulbs you use, the type of showerhead you use, the type of toilet, your thermostat settings, the amount of petroleum in your gasoline, the type of car you drive, the size of your yard...
Al Gore lied about being upset over naughty records too.
I really really hope that the Republicans will hold hearings on Cap and Trade during which I would love them to expose the green groups for what they are. Commies, Lawyers collecting money as a non profit, and other various get rich off of somebody else con artists
Big Business went globalist. If they can see Americans of Chinese made "green" crud for triple the price (while still selling the tried and true products in other countries), so be it. Doesn't sound like GE or others are hurting from the CHANGE.
Perhaps the folks predicting the weather a few decades out will do even worse.
Just because Ted Danson was saying 25 years ago that our oceans would be dead in 20 years is no reason to belive that the Greenie Weenies are STILL crying wolf.
Ted doesn’t think it was a lie, he says now that such hyperbole was needed at the time to generate public awareness.
That is the canard that the left puts out there. They say if you don't believe in AGW, then you don't want to respect and protect the environment, but just rape it for your own capitalistic uses. That is why they always say research against AGW come from Big Oil or Big Coal.
“or at least by diminishing its importance. The strategy worked,”
What worked was giving them enough rope to hang themselves.
Those of us knowing it was a hoax had no voice until it finally surfaced that all the information was a lie. They did their own in - and laws were passed on people based on a hoax like prop 23 here to undo laws based on a hoax - even the group doing it noted using numbers 340 percent off.
Global warming was done in by the oldest rule in the book.
You can fool some of the people all the time, you can fool all the people some of the time but you cannot fool all of the people, all of the time.
Piltdown Man was peer reviewed too.
Climate Gate has brought out the conspiracy to suppress alternative theories and contradictory evidence refuting and debunking the Global Warming theory.
They, and NYT, never explain how the sun, the most important factor in earth temperatures, is somehow, in their minds, only a tiny insignificant factor in their "climate change" carnival sideshow. We know they don't want the sun factored into the debate as they can't control the sun, only man's "contribution". Besides, where would liberals be without something to kick around?
The only solutions the left will debate is how much taxes and restrictions should increase. How about increasing CO2 absorbtion via fertizling saltwater algae to grow? That is a really cheap solution. How about man-made clouds for active climate management? They don't want a real solution, only more taxes and a Cuban standard of living.
It couldnt get any easier could it?
The Climate Gate memos out there for everyone to read.
Lets face facts you fact hiding, data dumpers. Your computer climate models are designed to produce results that indicate catastrophic climate change.
The Earths climatic system is far too complex for the puny human mind at this point in history to create a model that approximates the interactions of continents, oceans, atmosphere, ice packs and solar radiation and predict changes to the climate.
Sorry but we the people of the United States are not ready to expend trillions of dollars, destroy the economy of the world and plunge future generations in to poverty on the say so of a few grant seeking scientist who conspire to suppress the opinion of dissenting scientist.
Nope I like my standard of living I and I will not surrender it for a 18th century standard of living on the opinion of a scientist with little real evidence.
*Sproing!*
“. . . all are custodians of a strategy whose guiding principle has been to avoid debate about solutions to climate change by denying its existence or at least by diminishing its importance.”
This is not true. Skeptics argue that the globe warms up and down naturally and has for millenia. Most skeptics also agree that CO2 will cause a small, linear increase in temperatures—so small it is not interesting.
The dispute about AGW is whether man-released CO2 causes a non-linear increase in temperature. Put another way, does the little tiny linear increase in temperature cause a bunch of other stuff that is a positive feedback into the system resulting in much more temperature increase.
Either the times reporter does not understand the science or he is deliberately misrepresenting the issue.
As it most always is follow the money is the way to out these evil totalitarians. Look into who owns the company that will handle all the money that will be collected for the carbon credits and who owns the software to handle the trillions of dollars.
