so what?
it's not a personal battle between intellects! this is about what is factual and what is not, not about what you think about things. this is not about "evil elites" or any such ideation. it's about admitted planning and manipulation of people over things that aren't real. REAL environmentalism would be fine. agendas that come from the same source as the makers of the trouble aren't worth the energy. if people really want to do something, they can make the place they live a little more pleasant, even if it's just by being good to someone else for a change, and that would do a lot more for the state of the earth than any cap and trade policy ever could. i don't need experts to run my life, thanks.
how does any cap and trade policy actually do anything for the earth anyway? at best, it'll punish some ordinary folk, who were only doing what they were told by the tv when they bought that car to begin with. it's not like the policy makers left them any choice when the real public transit options were destroyed by an industry.
regardless of any of that crap, it's really indisputable that the statistics have all been reworked, skewed and downright faked to paint a scary picture, as these emails have proven. the very institution that is responsible for ALL the data that is driving these policies has egg all over it's face. there is absolute evidence of widespread fakery and out and out lying. add to that the sea levels are the same as they have been for hundreds of years(on average), sea ice levels haven't changed, polar bears have an exploding population and the general public will not resist repeating that which they have been told(repeatedly), even to their own detriment. plato's cave indeed!
nope, nothing to do about the FACT that the climate has always been variable and in the last 2000 years, it has varied WIDELY. in the case that nothing needs to be nor can be done about a problem that isn't a problem, the wisest thing to do IS nothing.
there is no backlash, no downside, no danger to not solving the climate change problem, because it's NOT a problem! there ARE actual problems made by humans, like dumping millions of gallons of old nerve gas into the ocean or GMO crops or ELF installations or the love of CHEAP crap with tons of packaging, but these problems are easily solved as well. don't do those things(except for dumbasses buying lots of cheap crap with too much packaging, most of the real problems are made by huge corporations and governments, NOT the public). if those that run things really were concerned, such a situation wouldn't even exist, since those who claim authority and knowledge are soooo omniscient that they could see all this trouble when these problems were approved for public consumption, and since they are SOOOO concerned with helping people and making a lovely earth, that they wouldn't do or promote such behavior. isn't it funny that the public is sold on a behavior and then when the obvious fruits of that behavior are reaped, the public is blamed?
again, i ask. how old are you? i don't think you've been around long enough to have seen things like forced sterilization and massive human tortue experiments, so you think that the guys in charge are nice, even though the same families that carried out atrocities are still running the show. maybe, you work for such folk, i don't know. i guess this will earn me another sarcastic, psychopathi-errr psychological remark. people who write textbooks know everthing that they talk about! that's why they are revised so often. it's good to put people into catagories that smarter people have made for them, right? [little baby voice]'cause those smart guys know everything there ever was to know and they would never lie!
it's funny how adults are supposed to listen to the children these days. i don't mean that stardust is a child, i mean that we are told that children are to guide society. how much more foolish can it get? a child that needs to be taught how to wipe it's ass, and not to eat candy for every meal, and not to touch the hot fire, and to play nicely and share should be the master of society? well, i'd expect anyone IGNORANT enough to think that CO2 is bad for the earth to be willing to accept any kind of f*ckery. here's another three words that will go over like fingernails on the chalkboard- god help us.
i really hope this stinking religion dies quickly! it's one of the least factual of them all, way less based on reality than Christianisty, Judaism, hinduism, Islam, Animism or the like. it does use meaningless psuedo scientific jargon to bolster it's position, however. speaking of that kind of psuedo-scientific thing that they LOVE to feed the public these days, i was reading and article about this earth-like planet that was found recently. according to the AP, scientists are thrilled that this planet's atmosphere is definitely gaseous! for those who are slow on the uptake, if there is an atmosphere, it MUST be gaseous. if it's not gaseous, it's not an atmosphere....whatever, CO2 is the basis of life on the planet and it's now considered a pollutant. it's no surprise since almost everyone who passed biology should have failed the course and the rest of the people obviously didn't pass biology...
