More junk science.
What terrifies me is how prolific is this cult. It’s not so much the people but the absolute brainwashing they’ve endured at the hands of a compliant and adoring media.
Anthropogenic global warming has been disproven across numerous fields of study, but they cling with every last inch of their lives to the notion that we’re all going to die and that the world is going to turn into some Biblical flood-type planet. To boot, it’s one of the best kept cons in history as they continue to refer back to studies that have long since been shown to be false and outright made up.
Now we have media darlings like the Weather Channel naming winter storms and absolutely salivating at the idea of naming a tropical storm as if it’s some sort of proof of global warming.
“More junk science.”
Anthropogenic global warming is not “junk science”. (Don’t blow a blood vessel, keep reading.)
It is clear that the gigatons of CO2 released into the atmosphere have some warming effect. That is very basic physics. I happen to be in the camp that thinks that such warming is not large, and can safely be ignored at least for now.
What has most on the right riled up are the proposed solutions to “catastrophic” warming. That’s the big problem.
The best approach is to pile R&D money into win-win technologies like solar and next-gen nuclear power. Once power generated by those methods is cheaper than coal (in particular) the “problem” goes away without wealth redistribution or the other zany ideas from the left. Plus there are the nice side benefits of less people dying from air pollution, and less mercury in the ocean. I like tuna.
I’m hopeful that LENR will come through and really solve our energy problems, but even if not there is no need for a scaled-down future with less energy consumption per capita, translating into a lower standard of living for almost everyone.
President Trump and solutions to global warming (whether or not it is a problem) are NOT mutually exclusive, and in fact represent a great future and opportunity going forward. Selling it this way could turn many global warming believers into conservatives.
Let the market work, get rid of onerous regulation, and we’ll have an energy-rich and better future.
While short of a majority, this is a substantial fraction of the American public failing to grasp the risks associated with reading Dana Nuccitelli.
maybe something will fall from the sky and strike you on the head, but I don’t wear a hard hat all the time.
what an idiotic statement.
we need to do something, just in case........moron
