Action on climate change has been stymied by politics, lobbying by energy companies and the natural pace of scientific research but one of the most significant barriers is our own minds.
Think about how every town seems to have a traffic intersection thats needlessly dangerous. No matter how many times you think to yourself, They should really put in a stoplight here, you dont call the proper authorities. (Youre already late for work, and it feels like someone elses problem to solve.)
Our mental responses to global warming and climate change follow a similar script. What needs to be done is clear enough stop greenhouse gases from occupying the atmosphere and yet progress moves at a snails pace. Three decades passed between the first report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change and the international communitys pledge for action through the Paris climate accords.

Qn: Was this a fix like the coordination of UK Universities emails to arrive at the desired conclusion? Or was it funded by the UN? or...greedy GORE?
That’s Al Gore straining to get the movement started.
It is insanity. Are they saying there is now never going to be another ice age? What are they saying?
The resistance to accepting climate change has been localized to one specific area of the brain - the logic lobe.
Simple lobotomies can be mandated to improve the political pliability of the population, as part of a Grand Green New Deal, as it begins to be drafted beyond its current bumper sticker slogan stage.
And my brain knows that that ice was gone thousands of years before the development of the internal combustion engine.
As a result my brain has reached the logical conclusion regarding that glacial ice as well as any "climate change" that might be occurring today.
The temps can easily swing by 50 degrees during the day. We are still here. A half of 1 degree a century from now? Just nonsense. Plus those who advocate global warming all want higher taxes so you know right there how crooked this all is.
Intelligent analysis of the facts?
How does my brain prevent me from accepting climate change? It behaves how it is supposed to. It uses logic and facts.
Why do liberal web sites not allow comments? Because liberal brains are unable to process contrary opinions.
Why does Michael Savage have to go into hiding? Because liberal brains are unable to process contrary opinions.
etc, etc, etc.
I know enough about computer modelling, and its strengths and weaknesses, to be unable to take climate science seriously.
The conclusions they are claiming to reach are not of a kind that could be produced by computer models.
The American Left have always been acutely embarrassed by the dominance of their nation on the global stage, and have long sought to replace the US with the UN, to "put us in our place".
The accumulation of further power by the UN has pretty much stalled for decades now. To jumpstart it, some huge crisis faced by all humanity is needed to jump to the next level of power, namely the power to tax on a global scale.
When we passed a Constitutional Amendment to allow the Feds to collect an income tax, our grandparents & great-grandparents' were lied to, being told it would only be a teensy little bitty tax, certainly no more than 1 percent or so. The reason given for why a 1% or 2% cap wasn't written into the amendment was: "just in case of a national emergency, when our govt might need to very temporarily raise it past that cap". Uhuh. Yeah. Do tell.
If the UN can ever be given that same kind of power to tax humankind, there's no stopping the slide downhill, even though it will start off being only a tiny amount, as America's new federal taxes were at the beginning. And a "dire global emergency" is the only vehicle for convincing enough people to give them that taxing power.
Huh. They say that like it's a bad thing...that is what your brain is supposed to do. Everything I don't take seriously is because my brain has thought it through and determined it doesn't need to be taken seriously.
It really makes me wonder what the Leftists at PBS use their brains for.
(No, I didn't read the article...:)
Typical libs. If you don’t believe their agenda, you have mental problems, there’s something wrong with your brain’s wiring, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah......
