To: worst-case scenario
However, do you think we can predict what the effects of rising temperatures will be?

Absolutely not because there is a corruption of the academic studies in this matter. 40 years ago they insisted we were headed for an ice age. Now they predict rapid warming instead. Can't have it both ways.

Criswell had a better track record at prophecy.

Take your global warming scare and sell it to other socialists.

To: a fool in paradise

If it truly is the case that all the evidence across the globe has been fudged and that every academic is in on a huge conspiracy to promote socialism, and that we can’t actually know anything about the environment or make any responsible predictions at all, then we all just sit back.

The big problem with that approach is that the entire rest of the industrialized world does not agree with that view. The G20 meeting, which just ended, shows that all the other industrialized nations think that the US is simply stubbornly wrong about this. The rest of the world is going to move forward on this issue without us. The other industrialized nations actually *believe* in science and empirical data.
I could give you links but would you bother? Everything that anybody has written or demonstrated about it you have already decided to ignore. That’s the sign of a closed mind.

It’s not a “scare;” I’m not a socialist. I’m asking what do we do if it turns out the Earth’s temperature is rising? I believe in *planning* for a worst-case scenario. Your answer seems to be to ignore it.

All I can respond is don’t buy investment property in Florida if you expect to hold it more than 20 years.
