The problem with global warming is just what's causing it? For example, while ice seems to be disappearing from the Arctic, the reverse seems to be true in Antarctica. Reducing our carbon footprint is a good idea but at what cost? Millions of dollars and millions of jobs? Is that what you want? The drastic actions proposed by some are only the beginning. The end result some want is the complete destruction of civilization and most of the human race, except themselves.

Of cource, pollution from our industrial revolution is the cause. That is the no longer a point of debate.

When we retool and change our hardware, cars, energy production, industrial processes - new technologies and convention create new markets and jobs. Good news if you invest in the new markets, bad news if you own a coal plant.

Just like we killed the buggie whip industry because we started building cars, so too does the world need to evolve to stop ruining the environment. That's what I want. Make incandescent light bulbs restricted for production while bolstering investment in new LED lights - better for most everyone in the long run. Unless you own a old style light bulb plant - too bad.

Now it's not just us fool liberals - The Pentagon has gone on record that climate change presents a nation threat.

Yeah, just like Kodak and their film...it was a good run while it lasted. They had a viable chance to stay out in front but instead listened to the "old guard" and doomed it's fate to the reality which is any fool from Mr. Kardashian to Miley Cyrus can operate a phone to take a picture of themselves without their film or their cameras or their developing procedures.

Who needs progress and besides shouldn't we have coal plants belching filth into the skies all over the place? Remember the good ol days when we lit up our homes with whale oil? Nothing really lit up the entire house like whale oil and child labor. Why, I'm getting all warm inside just thinking about how good we had it back then. We don't need no stinkin' progress. Why if we were just left alone to the old ways we'd be just like India, Mexico or some other 3rd World hovel that relishes heritage.

Interesting read about Richard Lindzen a former meteorologist from MIT.

Pull quote(s):

For example, before global warming exploded onto the scene, Lindzen said, “no one at MIT called themselves climate scientists.” They were oceanographers and meteorologists by trade, but “only when funding came did we become climate scientists.”
"Lindzen said these environmental advocates are “posing” as experts to get more federal funding. This entire process reveals “a highly-concentrated effort to take over a field” in science. And, adding insult to injury, many of the academics and experts are now “gatekeepers” of climate change and push aside any anti-global warming studies."



Then there is also those 31000+ scientists that have signed their names rejecting the assumption that the human production of greenhouse gasses is damaging the Earth's climate. But I am sure they are all climate deniers, since the science is settled and dissenting opinions and facts must be disregarded.

Just what is the correct ambient temperature of the Earth supposed to be?
Maybe if we knew that, we would know if the Earth is currently too cold and heating up to normal, or is it too hot and then we should be cooling down.

They naturally suck the energy out of the wind, so I suppose the first sentence must be true.

But, wouldn't slower wind have more trouble dispersing the evil chem trails? Sounds as though wind farms(and wind power subsidies, especially) just might be part of the greater chemtrail conspiracy....

I think the chem trails need the wind to disperse the chemicals. So the wind mills are preventing us from having the full benefit of the chem trails we put up there and stuff.

Did one state's legislators want to bad wind mills because they would slow down the earth rotation ? Maybe t-ball sent them a site where it was proven.
