But Global Warming is just a myth ....
Of course the globe is warming. We are coming out of a flippin' ICE AGE! The earth has been changing climates..adjusting the average temperature up and down for something like four billion years.
As in, hello? Do we really need to do this?
The question isn't about 'global warming.' It's warming. It would be warming if there were no people on the planet. Really. It's just the way the planet works.
The QUESTION is 'are human beings responsible for climate change?....and if we aren't, are human beings able to exacerbate it?"
No, and yes. We are NOT responsible for climate change, but we CAN exacerbate it and make it more...I guess 'extreme' is an almost good word. You know what else is happening, but that the politically correct chicken littles of the world are NOT getting all hyped over?
The magnetic poles are switching places. Soon (in geologic time, anyway) the North Pole will be the South Pole, and vice versa. This change is going to fowl up bird migration patterns and a whole lot of other things. (pun intended, for the spelling police). In fact, THAT is going to mess our technology up big time...but do you see any political candidate getting all hot and bothered over that?
Nope. Because nobody can figure out a way to make conservatives responsible for it, or a way for liberals to 'fix' it. It's just gonna happen, utterly beyond human control.
Seriously. I am so tired of people traveling all over everywhere in their expensive private jets yelling about how WE have to stop producing greenhouse gasses, and stop driving, ect.,
Have you seen anybody mention that the Ozone layer will be healed by 2050, because we figured out what caused the hole and stopped making the stuff that did it?
NO? Well of course not, because nobody can get any political power by pointing at a success. SHOULD we be more careful of the environment and use clean energy? Absolutely. We HAVE succeeded in many ways and places. I spent the last week in Los Angeles. No smog. None....in the 1960's I wouldn't have been able to breathe down there; the sky would have been utterly brown. Last week it was bright, bright blue in the middle of a month where smog was generally the worst.
Can people keep the world beautiful? Yes. Talk to India and China. STop claiming that Americans are the villains, because honey, we ain't. If everybody ELSE in the world followed our example, really...if they just did what we DO, the globe would still be warming, because that's what the planet is doing. But the earth would be cleaner, brighter, lovelier. ....and quite possibly, less extreme in the climate change.
