I am worried that we have already lost the battle. They have managed to monopolize the sources of information, co-opt all the corrupt scientists they need, and denigrate the other side as “bought-off hacks” or “deniers”.

Our spineless CEOs and political leaders, with few exceptions, have seen the battle lost and are simply jumping on the bandwagon to ensure they are not left standing at the station when the train leaves.

They have already begun passing legislation in all corners of the globe and the thing is pretty much cemented.

I believe that if we stop warming or if we cool, their line will be, “The sun is responsible for the cooling but we need to accelerate the reduction of CO2 levels because when the Sun ‘returns to normal’ it will be that much worse with higher levels of CO2 than today”

In a sense they will claim that Mother Nature, our dear Gaia, has given us a reprieve, a little time to act before it will be too late.
