If governments didn't waste money trying to prepare for something about which there is no evidence is happening, they would have the money to help their citizens adapt to the changes that are actually happening.

The push for governments to 'do something right now' about human caused global warming is being orchestrated by people who are looking for a power grab, pure and simple. That's why they're trying to shut down contrary research, and work hard to denigrate any scientist who is audacious enough to question their computer models.

Your reply came through after I decided to withdraw from further discussion on the issue. So I'll reply to you, succinctly:

From the scientific perspective, and not the political one: the progressive climate changes due to anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentration increase in the atmosphere are happening; and the future consequences, even just the realistic ones (not the really bad ones) are profoundly disturbing. No amount of what I could try to tell you here could convince you of that. And if you derive your perspectives from conservative sources, you won't ever get the full picture of what could happen.

I apologize that in a fit of pique I decided to make some comments. I shouldn't have done it. There's just too much disinformation for one person to try to address.

Hope you keep enjoying the geology pictures.
