You’re making a false assumption, and basing policies or actions upon a false assumption is not helpful.

Also, you have to understand the real down and nitty gritty reason that sheeperal support anything.

They want to feel self-righteous for believing and supporting it.

And there’s no amount of evidence or argument that shakes that motivation.

I think that diHydrogen Monoxide causes more deaths annually than Carbon Dioxide. Why not outlaw diHydrogen Monoxide ?

You sketch for the sheepal a picture of life under the new order - dark, cold, hungry.

They won’t go along with that.

I want to sway opinion and prove I’m right. The two are not mutually exclusive.

The goal of UN Agenda 21 is to eventually reduce the population of Earth by about 85%, to "sustainable" levels.

OK, greenies, Earth Firsters, et als, set the example. Kill yourselves.

You’ll never find a eugenicist who thinks the breed would be improved by pruning HIS line.

"Climate change" is very real, but humans are the last ones to influence it.

I love asking global warming activists what impact they think the following has on "warming": Milankovitch cycles
Galactic year
Solar cycles

All of which we don't fully understand yet but know the radiation we are exposed to makes a difference.

Usually I am met with a couple blinks, a pause and called a name or two. /shruggs

The earth has been warming and cooling periodically for over four billion years. What else is new ?

Some (realtive to the Earth's age) recent new discoveries that we actually exist IN BETWEEN ice ages. Its a great time to be alive right now.

“No one seems to be reading the article. The point here is that even if global warming were real and man-made, the wrong people are using the issue to promote their economic policies. “

The classic mistake made over and over by the right is allowing the left to set the narrative on an issue and then attempting to argue for a less draconian solution.

Do not accept the left’s narrative in the first place.

Someone in the GOP needs to say it: conservation is conservative; climate change is real; and conservatives need to lead on solutions because we have better answers than the other side.

The author was obviously either stoned or asleep when Newt Gingrich did that climate commercial with Nancy Dingaling Pelosi. Also, the GOP-e embraced Global Warming in 2008, when John McCain ran for President. I guess the author was either stoned or asleep during that time period as well.

DOOMAGE!

Are these the same GOP people who backed the immigration bill because it’s inevitable and Republicans need to get out in front of it? Same with same-sex marriage?
