Climate change? WTF? If anybody can show me a time in the history of the earth where the climate has not been “changing”, I’ll turn in my two Hummers.
Second, when will Al Gore -— or a real scientist for that matter —— tell me what the mean global temperature should be? Should it be set at 58 degrees F? If so, how should the temperature be distributed throughout the day -— or the seasons —— or across hemispheres?
History will recognize the envirofreaks as the witchburners of the 21st century. Like the flat-earthers, they will be mocked and scorned. Unfortunately, they appear poised to do far more damage than flat-earthers or witch burners ever dreamed of doing.
Yep, climate changes, so odds for global warming are 50/50 to start with. Here's what Global Warmongers assume:
1. The earth is getting warmer.
2. It's never gotten this warm before
3. This is a bad thing.
4. The sun's not to blame.
4. The warming is linear, not cyclic.
5. A blanket of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses are the cause, insulating our atmosphere the cosmic heat-sink.
6. Carbon Dioxide is the greatest contributor.
7. Mankind is the greatest producer of CO2.
8. Industrialized, civilized societies produce unprecedented levels of CO2 and can't help but make more.
9. The only hope for mankind is a world-wide constabulatory to assign allotments to each person dictating how much CO2 each can produce.
10. Once you make CO2, you're stuck with it.
11. The only people we can trust to fairly undertake this regulatory crusade are scientists and political elites.
12. The scientists are the most trustworthy because they are enlightened and disinterested. They're devoted to mankind, sort of like priests, but without the religious hangups.
13. Ditto the politicians--even those from third-world, autocratic hell-holes.
I've probably left some things out. Feel free.
